2008 Supercharged C6Z broken RR diff output shaft.
Im new to the C6 game and have a 2008 C6Z with an A&A Supercharger, Kooks Long Tubes, Corsa back and 345/3518 MT ET Streets.
My personal best is 11.2@130. I went to the track the other day to try and break into the 10's and just ended up breaking. lol. I took it apart today and I broke the RR Differential Output Shaft. (See pics)
I was looking at buying the DriveShaft Shop Output shafts and 1000hp axle setup as well as urethane trans mounts. I did find a Trans/Diff Brace that ECS makes.
Just wanted to get everyones opinion before I pulled the trigger.
Thanks in advance
Derek

I don't know if DSS still makes the 300M and the new stronger ones. Make sure you get the better ones. I broke a 300m shaft but had no issues with the better ones.
I personally stuck with C5 axles because I would rather break an axle than anything else. I consider it like a fuse that is easy and relatively cheap if one should break.
As far as mounts I have had good results with the Hinson ones myself.

Thanks for your input guys. I did end up going with the hinson mounts, stage 5 1000hp axle and hub setup as well as the diff axle shafts from DSS. I also bought the diff/trans brace from ECS.
