What year?

I had the same issue with my turbo M52 E30. I had an early model (85) and they are slightly smaller diameter hubs. But it really won't do much swapping to a late model rear end.

The only real fix is to either find a set of CATuned axles Chromoly axles (Which they stopped making). A set of DSS Axles ($$$) or a M roadster rear end.

Also if you're breaking axles, look into getting a second diff mount. https://store.garagistic.com/e30-secondary-diff-mount

Good advice. The secondary diff mount might help.

It's odd you're breaking axles at that joint. Usually people will blow the diff, driveshaft, or shear the output shaft of the axle.

What are you doing when the axles let go?
