I've been having problems breaking my stock axles as well. Between my buddy and I on our WK's we've broken at least 12 sets. I'm glad MIP has some upgrades and I will be making the purchase as well very soon. My wife wants a rig to wheel and i don't want to be working on hers all the time.

I havent had mine for too long. I upgraded to MIP's in the front. I'm sure I could break them too if I really tried lol.

I just replaced my original fronts the other day (15 months old) because they were getting pretty worn but hadn't actually broke yet. I'm locked front & rear with ~4oz added to each wheel and a 55T Novak running on 7 cells geared 96/14.

Ive found that if you replace the whole axle out with axials is the only way to not break another WK axle:-P
