Default Front Stub Shaft Break

Has anyone build there own outer shafts? Mine broke where it necks down and goes out to the knuckle. I tried to weld it back, but didn't work. Only chasis mods are a tummy tuck so Nylint probably won't take it back.

I broke one. It snapped half of the cup off, and took a chunk out of the opposite side out too. A friend came by when I was taking it apart and said he could fix it. He brought it back yesterday all fixed. Looks stronger than it was when new. He said he built the cup back up with weld and then recut the slot and formed the rest with a dremel. I put it back together last night and tried it out. all seems good.
