Default 28 spline

ok im lookin at doin the axles in my car and i want to know if 28 spline axles are strong enough to hold a 350-400 rwhp car with slicks launchin hard! i realize all the other things i need for this but i'm not sure how strong 28's are thanks guys!

nah I would upgrade to 31 spline, the slicks will end up doing a number on the 28s and you want to have a strong posi carrier and the factory t-lok isnt going to last very long against all the stuff your thinkin about. just my .02

I had the one wheel peel goin on and did 31 spline strange axels and a detroit trutrac diff. It was 1300.00 for everything installed (i know a little steep) but i have a real bulletproof rear now and wont need a tow truck to get home from the track. And if i ever do want to run slicks theres no problem.

As long as you have forged and hardened 28's, you should be fine. I am launching at 6K on ET Streets (not the drag radials).

If you get 31 spline axles do you need to do any thing else or do they just bolt in?

You will need a new carrier.
