Default Bear rear axle + C Clip eliminator...@#$%#$

I broke 3 rear axles in the past 5 years and i have
decided to buy unbreakable (almost) axles.

I got the Strange/Bear set up which included the C-clip
eliminator and the axle itself. I started working on the
car last sturday at 8:00AM and i finished the work at 10:00PM

This kit suck! I was particularly desapointed for those reason:

-A 40 tons press was needed
-i had to cut and remove the extisting stock bearing
-i wasn t able to have the proper torque on nuts.
-Every thing fits well after using the hammer 1000 times.

I would like to know if someone ever had fun installing this
kit and if there is someone who did it in less than 8 hours?

They are supposed to be stronger than the stock ones, but how
much stronger? (28 splines)
(Physically the stock axle is similar to the strange axle)

If the Strange axle break a small piece of the axle will stay in
the differential, i ll have to remove the differential cover anyway
... so why eliminate the C-clip???

If someone desagree, please help me to get out of the dark side
of the force.
