    Don't know, but I ran a '37 V8 60 axle like yours with split bones on one car in the early '70's, and it worked fine. I know you are referring to tube axles not flexing like I beams, but if you look at all the T buckets out there with tube axles it shouldn't be a problem. Plus, these 60 axles are very scarce and desirable anymore. I envy you, wish I had never sold the one I had.

    Grabowski ran one on his Kookie T, but he had sort of a 4 bar set up on his. I think for the light weight you are dealing with here, and the limited use a hot rod gets, you will be fine. If it still worries you, give it to me, I'll take that thing out of your way.

    They are bringing big money on ebay when they show up, and these look bitchin'. The only downside to them is that they aren't dropped very much, as a 4 inch axle would be.
