Thats what i thought. If i wanted to put in an arb diff locker would i be better of changing to 24 spline? I presume if i did id be better of changing the whole rear axle. If i did that what would be the easiest route to go. I also presume id want a diff the same ratio as the front, (woulg I?). OR are the 10 spline any good or would it just snap the shafts:confused:
 
i wouldnt say 10 or 24 spline are stronger than each other.ive broke 10 spline shafts and me mates broke 24 spline shafts..

if you go and spend £600+ on an arb diff i would want a half shaft to give up b4 the diff did..

me personally i would stay with 10 spline.
the only real benefit i can see with 24 spline is that they are becoming more readily available than 10 splines
 
i have broke 10 spline shafts and 24 spline shaft. if i was looking to upgrade the diff and put and arb looker in i would also spend and extra few ££££££ and buy some strengthend shafts aswell then u know u wont brake one
Thats just my opinion

thats one thought but then the stress/breakage would transfer further down the drivetrain.

i know some trailing boys who purposely angle grind a thin line around the half shaft at the wheel hub end so that in the event of a breakage in competition the shaft is easier to remove..
 
Superb replies, thanks!:). Is it possible to get streghtened 10 spline shafys, if so where. SAVES A FAIR BIT OF WORK IF I STAY 10 SPLINE THEN
