Rear Spindle max torque?
How much torque can a stock rear spindle take? I am assuming GM used the same rear spindle for both the big and small applications. Who makes a good high performance rear spindle?
Thanks

Yes all spndles are the same. No one makes a HP spindle unless you jump up to the 30 spline spindles and side yokes. Guys running that set up are usually in the 750 HP range and up. The only thing you can do to stock spindles is to cryogenically treat them. That will make them hold up longer.
