Strange told me that the gun-drilled axles are the toughest most durable axles that they produce??

Do you want to take that chance that it may break down track under speed, or at the hit and take you right into the wall? You may want to rethink using it in your near future, and get another axle, or another new pair just to be safe, and don't have them gun drilled, so that the shaft itself can absorb more of the twist vs. the splines, you don't need this in the back of your mind, my 2 cents worth.
