Lightweight Axles

Well, my first alum spool broke coming out of the water at Dallas Nat's down to 8 cars and maybe it was "my day"...dunno...bought another, MW said to keep an "eye" on it.....3700 llbs trans brake, 265 CI

Anyway, I called DEWCO about a titanium spool, just to see if there was one, how much etc, thinking it would be stronger and lighter.....he went into a long disertation that I mostly could not understand....but he said flex/bind would kill more than lightweight would help
