Axle swap.

We have been running on Sport axles. A friend upgraded to d60s and made us an offer we couldn't refuse on his upgraded rubi axles. So today my husband and youngest son swapped out both axles, in 100 degree heat no less. Go Hubster!









Drove it home, about a forty five minute drive, and it felt great!
Hubster will wire the lockers next week then off to BB and John Bull.

And yes that is the MC GameChanger 3.5" with Emus.... Great lift!!

We had already upgraded the front driveshaft when we lifted and we switched out the rear to the the one our friend was running.
My husband replaced the mini cargo net panel in the center console with a switch panel and is running the wiring today. Fingers crossed it all works lol!

Yes

We installed that about 4 years ago.
I broke the original D35 (go figure).
Then replaced the D35 with a D44 and broke that twice. I am easy on the go peddle, trust me.

We made the call to Currie and got that shipped to the door and installed.
Not broken a thing on it since it has gone in.

It has 35 spline axle shafts in it.
A Detroit locker.
Ford disk brakes for stopping power.

I don't worry about it when I am playing in the big rocks and have to drag it or parts of the Jeep over rocks.
