Broken axle?

So dealer said Polaris is not covering axles under warranty. The half shaft needed to repair is only $37.50. Has anyone tried aftermarket? Anyone heard of issues (1k or turbo) with using a stronger axle (broken diff, etc)?

The local dealer had already had 5 turbo axles denied. Obviously they cannot hold the power. Mine broke turning in hard pack, on the loaded side. No spin, no lift. Just could not hold the torque and snapped the half shaft at spline for inner CV.

So the question: fix this axle and buy a spare OEM, or replace with Gorilla or similar? And why.
