Why do you think that?


The savage flux shafts and cups are very strong. You are running the SHD parts right?

I ran them without any problems in my 6s 1520 17lbs truck... never had any problems unless i tumbled and bend the shafts, but havent had any probs at all with outputs... yes there is wear, but not that bad?

You got pics of yours?

I sold my flux because of the weak outputs that rip apart every 1/2 pack and even the pins on the driveshafts snaped of just as often! But i liked thenrest of the truck so i migjt buy another one if there are stroger parts out for it now?

My flux was all stock !

what was your wheel and tyre combo???

even then i havent heard of many people continouslly blowing pins up. Even guys using heavy baja rims...

But yes the flux as stock does require a few mods to make it a more reliable basher. But that is all apart of the fun right?

It must be user error. I have never heard anyone say this before. However I did bust a pin on a center dogbone within the first few packs on mine but i replaced it and havent had a problem since and that was over a year ago. I think it was not hardened properly or something.


Built Ford tough, with Chevy stuff.
