I have been holding on to mine because Jerry and I have been kicking around the idea of making a straight axle out of one of my 10 bolt pumpkins. This way I could have my 5:38's and straight axle too!
I can't make up my mind if I want Toyota or Dana 44's outers. I know the Dana would be stronger, but now I worry that that would make the R&P the weak link.



That is a cool idea, but I think it would be alot stronger if you used a 12 bolt to make the front axle. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />


Can't, Gears would be backwards. And flipping them to use the coast side would be a waste of expensive gears. Wouldn't last one trip. Beside if you want to build a Rock Crawler why not use a Dana 60? Parts are a whole bunch cheaper.


Nope, for some moderate to light off roading a 10 bolt would be plenty.
