The throttle is not an on/off switch.

I think your right about that.Wrangler guys run them with 35s all the time but they are a bit lighter than a XJ.Even if it has upgraded shafts and joints and trussed(don't know if it is)I don't think I will ever pound on my 30 like this.

I got a buddy that is constantly breaking his 44 in the front,makes me wonder if its worth swapping with the luck he has had with his.
