Ouch, glad I did opt for the billet output shaft. Maybe FLT would be willing to sell or point you to a source for them?

Matt's been pulling 4wd launches for almost a year with the FLT tranny including the hardened output shaft, he's also launched it on drag tires several times in 2wd at the track with no issues... ask Vince @ FLT his opinion
