Building A HP D30, What Parts & Brands?
Will be picking up a Hp D30 to build up for my future swap this winter when i go to install a lift. I plan to run 6-8" of lift and 35" boggers. Needs to be strong enough to operate in any terrain and I'm smart enough not to use a stupid amount of throttle when twisted up.
I know in general what parts need to be installed gears,alloy shafts, better u-joints, locker, etc.. Ive been researching but there are so many companies its hard to know who to go with. I'm looking for good parts but also at a good price. Good warranties and preferably American made.
I'm looking for users first hand experience on their parts and what they recommend. Will be using factory parts as trail spares so plan to stay at factory spline count.

I can see where its a good package but that will force me to have to by spare 30 spline shafts which will increase my cost. Also i haven't seen a super 30 kit that doesn't use the arb air locker. I'm guessing no one else makes a 30 spline locker. Rusty's doesn't say anything about brand of their shafts or warranty.

Same here, bullet proof. I don't know if the E-Locker is as bullet proof as the Detroit locker, but I do know that they build good products that work, and no messing with air lines and O rings.
