[QUOTE="Digger 5, post: 1021924, member: 16808"] As has been stated above, it's all in the driver. With my old CJ with 44's front and rear on 35" Boggers and then Krawlers, I lost 1 front resplined stock axle in 10 years and that was due to a circlip falling out. I wasn' t afraid to use the winch and I've got a little wheelin' experience. I've seen guys with similar stuff break something everytime out. Personally, I now overbuild. I don't want to worry about breaking. I have 37's on both my rigs and 60's at both ends. I don't carry spare axles shafts and don't feel there's a need for them. Spare d-shafts are about the only drivetrain spare parts I carry. Breaking sucks. We've all been out with the guy that is underbuilt and doesn't know when to back out or winch. I hate wheelin' with those guys. If you can't afford something right away, do the minumum with your junk now, carry lots of spares and save your cash for the 'right' part. But also be aware that you don't have the good stuff now and wheel accordingly. No one wants to drag your ass out. Just my $.02. [/QUOTE]
