    X2 - I beat the ever living hell out of 28 spline axles and they mostly live. In my case they outlive traction lok carriers ;)

    Good tires make average cars feel like superman :D

    Its funny when the stuff breaks... But not as funny when its yours... I think I am going to go with the 31s and then get the carrier around tax time. Possibly some 3.73 gears. Then tires before summer! Should feel like a completely new car since the Kenne Bell makes so much Torque anyways!

    I vote sticky tires so you atleast give yourself a chance at breaking one. :)

    or

    If you don't have them already....how about a good set of subframe connectors.
    I'm with this guy
    You should do C-clip eliminators to make it legal/safer if you do the rear, probably weld the axle tubes if you plan on racing with sticky tires regularly.

    stickys first, then subframes, then youll break your axles so youll need 31 splines

    Fixed
    Subframes first so you don't twist your shit.
    My last 3 Mustangs all got full-length subframes connectors within a month of buying them. Its a good habit to have
