Everyone has heard about those weak tierods and we have seen the awsome pics of the twisted drive shafts but what else have you broken while drag racing? Transfer case? Diff? Axles?
Can these items hold up to these 4WD launches? I've noticed a slight vibration while accelerating in 4WD after several launches. Maybe it was always there...

2 Cv axles and a range selector switch, shift cable, and shift cable mount while mudding

then found the Dieselplace.com, did some asking and reading.

nothing since then, Have done both truck pulling and drag racing.

Other then replaceing steering parts that are worn out from mudding, which I have retired the truck from.
