Hi Dom, good to see you here again. I just talked with the local driveshaft shop and was bemoaning the use of a 1410 universal on the axles with a 1350 on the driveshaft. It made sense to the driveshaft guy because of the torque multiplication through the gears. The other consideration for the excessive strength on the half shafts is the angle they work at and travel through with the suspension which would be why they are just big industrial units. I'm plasma cutting them BTW ;-)
