I saw a guy break one once, and it stuck in the ground. It lifted the *** end off the ground. I bet his pants were full after that.

Yes aluminum shaft and it broke the tailshaft housing, safteyloop, reluctor wheel, and banged up the rear yoke. It didn't scare me becouse this is the second time this has happend to me. I just need to kick down the ends and get a for real shaft.
