Default TeraFlex 60 vs. Currie Rock Jock 60 vs. Dynatrac

Was just wondering if you guys think that the Teraflex d60 is better or about the same as the Currie unit. Any thoughts would be great.

In the pictures it looks very similar to the Currie. I would think it would be about the same strength wise.

There are a number of features that separate the Currie "Rock Jock 60" from the competition, here is a few.....

Flow through oiling system, the cool oil drops in between the pinion bearings and returns to the "sump" area. Makes for great pinion bearing oiling. Something to keep in mind when your vehicle is a daily driver with lots of freeway miles.



Other 60's use standard pinion oiling, the cool oil goes into the front pinion bearing, comes out and the same hot oil goes to the second pinion bearing.

Set 80 axle bearings, 50% greater capacity than stock. The JK is factory equipped with Set 10 bearings.

Adjustable shock mounts, allows the shock to go in factory location or it can be moved up to gain ground clearance.

Edit,

Only 60 available with bolt on skid plate made of AR400 steel. AR400 is used to make tractor buckets, snow plow blades and such. AR stands for Abrasion Resistant, slides easily on rocks and protects the casting.

Better ground clearance than a Dana 44 no matter what the pinion angle is!!!

Currie stocks JK rear ends at 66" wide and 1 Ton front ends at 68 3/4" wide. We can make them any width you want, just takes a little longer. We can ship axles around the world.

Currie has been in the axle business for a whole lot longer. I would go with experience.

teraflex makes some good stuff

but Currie makes rear ends, that's what they do and they are the best at it.
