Raptoberfest 2014 Pics and Vids Thread

All the axles I've seen broken have been 2010-11. Was something changed in 2012-14 to make them stronger or have the 12-14 guys just not abused their trucks as much to cause premature failure yet?

Newer years I've been told are stronger.

The newer trucks have a larger she shaft - one additional spline (34 vs 35). I thought one of the ones broken at RTF was a 2012?

Actually there was

-2010
-2011 (mine)
-2012

I found a company out of Georgia finally that I'm having both axle shafts from the rear sent to to have custom ones made. Since my truck is a daily driver I can't wait for the OEM ones (2-3 months) or RPG chrome-moly ones (4-5 weeks)

Hudlow axle said it would be 1-2 weeks. I told him to make them a good bit stronger than stock. Let me go pull the info and see what material these new ones will be.

GoPro on the front bumper worked out well. What are you using for video editing?
