Questions about welding the axle tubes

[Jeff Kleiner]

IMO, unless you plan to do drag race launches on slicks the "fuse" will be the tires---in other words I do not see much potential for axle housing failure on street tires.

Going to agree, a waste unless you're building a hardcore drag car. This is the axle used in millions of 3600# or heavier Mustangs, you don't hear of Ford having any come back problems with them. These cars are over a 1000# lighter, going to take some serious power and tires to cause a problem.
