Sounds like a twig snapping. Sounded a lot louder from inside the car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nc3fr82PrJQ&feature=channel_page
Yes. Snapped off driver's side one at hub. Other side got stuck in differential and both had to be scrapped. My driver's side was typically the one that would spin during burnout.
"I snapped a halfshaft, time for plan B" My next thought was "Those bias-plys hook pretty good." I knew it was going to happen and had everything in place, new '09 upgraded halfshafts, AAA Premium membership and Bob Crespo's cell phone number (my mechanic).
Gotta love a man prepared like that, lol!! Sorry they snapped Jeff but looks like you were hoping they would soon anyway huh, hahahaa! Hey, I'm gonna try to get out there next Wed if work permits, when's your car gonna be fixed??
No Wednesday night drags at Infineon this week so the week after that I should be there (unless it is 90 degrees)
That's good since we're in the middle of a 95* HEATWAVE!!!!!!!!! This is April right?!?!? I'm never gonna get that 12 sec slip, God must hate me, lol!
USCG Breaking a Builder Bill 8.8 Halfshaft at the CV Cage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGwN0AtzF-k Same run from the starters box http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj205/CarFinish/Atco 4-09/?action=view¤t=1USCGbust.flv To his credit Bill had him on the road by 12 noon the next day. Good luck with the 226 stuff, I am waiting for some people to put some grunt to them before I buy in. -Robert
haha these video's bring back fond memories of when I broke mine. lol Only difference was I went back out TO break my 1/2 shafts. hahaha
