thanks man.

well i hope it holds. i ordered the hardened output shaft today from FLT. but i couldnt afford the billet one. i also ordered a complete input drum shaft assembly thats been hardened also, along with a beast shell, kevlar band, z pack 3-4 clutch pack kit, a new front planetary because it got screwed up by debris from the output shaft, and an upgraded sprag. that was about $700 in parts. this bastard better hold for a while!!!

what level tranny does he have? the level five comes with the billet shaft, all the rest come with the hardened shaft.

The cryo shaft comes in the level 5 units. The billet shaft is an upgrade at this point. The others get a stock shaft. We are working on making the level 5 builds with some new goodies!
