[QUOTE="qzillanut, post: 1513295, member: 10675"] So back to what I was saying about pulling a trailer. Let’s consider pulling a steep mountain grade. You are full throttle in 3rd gear (*** that mountain). It’s the same torque on the transmission output as pulling the sled in low range, however it’s significantly less on the drive shafts and the axles. It’s only 8072 on the axles. It’s the same 2,274 ft lbs of torque on the transmission rear output as pulling in low range on the sled. So there it is....mathematically explained why I care more about my drive shaft sled pulling than my transmission. And also the fact that in the 30+ years I’ve been sled pulling I’ve seen maybe a couple dozen transmission failures. I’ve seen hundreds if not thousands of broken axles and driveshafts. [/QUOTE]
