I am wondering if you got a bad batch of axles. Were all of them bought from the same place(a-main/LHS)? I have bought 4 sets of front axles and have never had a problem with any of them. I have ran both the plastic AE hexes and the clamping JC hexes. What wheels are you running? I have only run regular offset. Are you running the +3 rims? Hate to see you switch brands over this.
I too have had this problem with the hex breaking. Right in half where the roll pin goes into. It's a bad design by ae. The solid axle is way better and no issues what's so ever. But hopefully they make a more durable one in the future. It's very frustrating. But the truck handles so much better with the 3mm offset. I can't go back to stock even tho its more durable. Nothing is perfect these days...
