    I love my truck, but saying these have too much torque is laughable.

    Too much for that application/setup, still no such thing as too much, just means you have to make adjustments to handle your output. Maybe too much traction or launching at high of an RPM in this case, hell he didn't break the axle (no harm) just pulled it clean out from underneath the car, bolt that baby back up in there :D.

    That axle in the video did not break.

    It looks like the trailing arms and U-Joint failed.

    This is not a problem, it's a feature.:D And it's not exactly a speed racer, just not much weight in back.
