Sonata...no. Elantra, they might be stronger, but who knows! If they are stronger, not by much.

You're better off to just go in on the group buy for www.driveshaftshop.com

Right...but alot of people plan on building cars that produce alot of power. There has been a couple of people that snapped their axels from having too powerful of a car.
