Even with a 300M shaft, something else down the line will go next.
If you have drawings for it, call TCS. They make shafts for a lot of people....... Rusty is good people.

transworks customer support!  LMAO

no I really wondered if that wasn't it as well but know what a stock one can handle I wonder if the heat treatment didn't do something as well especially if it wasn't annealed completely before but you will figure out for sure! good job!!

Undoubtedly a voodoo heat treat issue primarily IMO. Possibly also needs a material upgrade while I'm at it. Maybe not. Will go to work finding out what OEM shaft material is Monday. I'm just guessing but I bet it's a through hardening material that I did not properly temper. It appears to my uneducated eyes to be a hard core unlike a case hardened part with a soft ,tough core. After I get a material analysis I'll decide what next step will be. Could just need to be a HT by professionals or that plus a material upgrade. Either way this is a solvable issue.No biggie.

Master,
I have used the TCS shop to rebuild a torque converter for one of our forklifts. They did a good job and the price was in line too.

I have the splined shaft I need in hand in 8620 . The problem is that I will need the other end to have the stock VW spline on the other end.I seriously doubt that TCS has the spline rack necessary.  I want the spline rolled onto the shaft.Won't hurt for me to inquire with TCS.There is someone ,somewhere that can take my premachined machined blanks and roll the splines I need.All I gotta do is find that spline roller with the needed racks.

Interesting break across a long area instead of across the smallest section.

So what were you doing at the time?  ;D

Shock loading unloading on whoops, jump landing or clutch sidestep?

So did you take the VW shaft and have splines rolled on to fit adapter, or custom shaft rolled to fit VW?   And from pics doesn't look like there was any twisting in shaft before failure?  Splines look brand new.

I modified a stock shaft by having Grob roll their splines onto it in the OEM seal area.
