As the title states. Anyone break one? I'm contemplating getting a set of cro-mo rears but I cant recall seeing/hearing about someone busting one. Lots of bends, but no brakes.
Fairly common. I have seen it several times on the trail.
What sucks about the rear Rubi axle is that the shafts are not equal lengths, so you have to carry 2 spares if you want to be prepared. X and Sport owners only need to carry 1 shaft to get them home from a trail-fail.
Right on, that's what I was looking for to put me over the edge. I've got a 550 mile round trip and 4 days on the Rubicon in July and the only thing that worries me is breaking a rear shaft. Looks like I'll get a set of cro-mo's.
Not true at all. Due to the proprietary Rubi locker, the shafts are unequal lengths. The X or Sport models do not suffer this stupid design. Makes carrying trail spares a PITA.

I'm thinking of 35 spline ARB for my rear setup any comments on that setup..sorry If I derailed..
