right now ive got the stock axles under it but im planning on a dana 44 and a 9inch out of a f150 or possibly 3/4 ton from a f250.after doing more and more measuring i figure id be better off with 38 to 40's.but i do appreciate everyone for their opinions.

44 and 9 inch won't hold up to 42s. 60s are a minimum. Here's one on 42s and Rocks. First trip out split the t-case. Notice he built a subframe attached to the exo because the unitbody won't hold up.



why?
