[Tigers] Tiger rear end

[michael king]

The rear ends can handle a LOT of power.. And axle shafts are good for 350+
.. What you should watch out for with big HP increases are:

1. The spring hangers that mount the leaf springs, the extra torque and
power place additional stress on an already compromised area.

2. Wheel studs, big hp motors and wider/ sticky tyres to assist can cause
them to snap.

3. Panhard rod mount... As per point 1 an already weak area prone to stress
vwt more stress and will crack or tear off.

4. If you have weld on traction bars... The mounts that weld on can be torn
off

5. The point at which the cruciform meets the rear rails acts as a pivot
point, more torque = more stress.

And the other rear end to watch out for with a high HP stroker.... Yours...
Use the right foot carefully! ;-)
