hell yeah ....... so you guys think my rig is really that capable as is... cuz i thought i would probly snap an axle or something if i pushed it to much (which i realize you can do on antyhing depending on how you run it) in my head those stock axles (especialy the d35 i beleive it is up front) are the weakest link to my rig |

it will be a dana30 up front, and while it probably is your weak point, it all depends on how you wheel. if your worried about it just carry spare shafts and we will gladly help out on the trail if you bust one
(was it your jeep i used to see parked at the lincoln mall time from time? like in front of the little strip of stores, not the main mall?)

you have a dana 30 up front, and either a chrysler 8.25 or dana 35 out back. the 8.25 has a flat bottom on the diff housing, d35 is round bottom. d35 is garbage on bigger tires, the 8.25 youd have is marginally better, but still less than ideal.
i wheel a dana 30 front on 35" tires, and while some people object to that, others dont. its all in how you drive or what you drive on

well no i dont believe that was me at lincoln mall because i beleive i saw that rig a few times myself.. and yeah i know its a crystler 8.25 in the rear... well to be honest i have only had this jeep for about a year and i bought it stock so needless to say i havent done a ton of wheeling with it yet.. though i do have some pics of trails i brought it on so far

and i have also had a bad experiance wheeling with nobody capable of pulling me out or with a wide variety or tools... this past i beleive it was febuary i was heading off a trail because i just bent my lower tie rod and the friggen crank sensor went in it... i had to leave the jeep in the woods over a course of 4 days to pull it out.. got stuck on a thursday eventually got it out on monday after it snowed sunday.. my dad and i used his truck which also took some damage while trying to rescue me but my optima battery and superwinch did a lot or work considering there was no running engine connected to them... that trip SUCKED!!  which is one of the main reasons i wanted to join a club |
