Sucks to hear about it crapping out.
There's got to be more to it than that. The Nissan Titan has an aluminum d-shaft and they're torque monsters and I've never heard of one failing.
Maybe it's due to the truck being lowered, or lifted...(?)
JB1- Nice looking truck.

Its not an NNBS thing.
Concensus was always to Dyno in 2nd. I've seen like 4 or 5 posts since I joined here of people doing a dyno run in 3rd and the drive shaft lets go. Sometimes taking out the trans with it. Usually aluminum or a steel 1 piece.
There have been a few that did it on the highway. Just because you HAVE gone that fast, doesn't mean your driveshaft was enjoying the ride. crawl under it after a run like that and see if there are marks on the driveshaft or bottom of the truck.
That too has been done.
2piece steel ftw!
I'll see if i can find a couple of the threads later.

see my El Camino in my sig it has a inland aluminum driveshaft 5500 stall convertor, T400, with trans brake 16 inch wide slicks 1200 hp on NOS and runs 8's in the quarter....maybe you need a better aluminum driveshaft.....
