Yep just a bit stronger and thicker. I have the 27 spline 8.25 with 31's and do lots of beach/trail driving and have never had a problem with it...Tj

so the more splines the stronger. I'm planing 33's and want to not have to ever think bout the rear end having issues so i think the 29 spline should be solid?

You would think so... I'm not all that familiar with the 8.25 set up either

if you do have to replace the axle seals, just get new ones. i think they're like $3 a piece.
