Yes, you can. Search for Postban, click the appropriate pill.

DSS Level 5 halfshafts, IRS cover brace, Bushings and some tougher rear Toe Rods, like PHP's or Kenny Brown's...should be able to handle well over 600 with no problems.

There are guys that've gone 9s on them, there are guys that have broken them bone-stock. Two keys, 1)get the Billetflow/MJChip designed IRS brace 2)eliminate wheel hop, if you get it then get out of the gas

You, my friend, are an alien operating slighty outside the normal time-space continuoum. And a poet laureat with a stick shift. Us mortals seek translation of your abilities to further our goals.

I know of one other in the tires-and-brace only brigade. And it ain't your sister Luke.

Can you make the IRS Handle the Power without failure??......No, you cannot make them bulletproof. But, you can certainly upgrade them to the point that they can get a lot of RWHP to the ground on a fairly consistent basis with a lower risk of breakage. Heck, there was even a DSS Level 5 half shaft break the other day, and another less publicized, but fairly common weakness is the differential clutches.

100 plus passes here with level 5 axles and brace, 600 ft lbs torque! Did burst the seals on the inner cv on the dyno but driveshaft shop replaced them. Think I am going to go for another full season and see what hyappens.
