Thanks Marlin, thats the info I was looking for. This is for a different project, not the comp buggy. If the rear output is the weak link with a total spline 21 , then would there really be any advantage to a 23 spine other than piece of mind?
You are correct Phil :bowdown:The only other reason is that the larger 23 input has more surface area, so there would be less spline wear thur the years.
