Lowest you can go is 4.88



Unless you plan on a D44 up front too

i know im limited with the D30 in the front...but i dont rock crawl so it isnt worthy for me to swap the front axle....unless i end up snapping alot of shafts...and in that case i would probally give Alloy a try...as alot of Front D44's Use the same size shafts and U-Joint as a D30.....

EndlessMtnFab

I wasn't comparing strength issues of D30 and D44 .... i was saying that you cannot go any lower than 4.88 in a D30. Only way to get 5.13 is to swap a D44 in.
