My D30 is geared to 5.13's, sleeved, gussetted, auburn electric locker with MTR's w/Kevlar 37" which was on stock rims until I upgraded to xd addicts. I've got Poly ball joints too but I've gone through one set with another upper going bad now. Other than that I've been fortunate, as I haven't broken anything. Although I personally believe the lockers help. It allows me to crawl over stuff otherwise I would be spinning and going faster than I should.

I bet you my sleeved, 4.88, gusset'd, RCV axle'd, and locked D30 is stronger then any Rubi stock D44

I run 37's locked on my D30 all the time. No issues....ever!

Wow that's crazy. I think I do remembering seeing a thread about your jeep when that happened. Good everything worked out though.

I just installed 37s on my sleeved and gusseted 30. I am pricing a PR44 now tho and as soon as the money is available Ill be upgrading. I like the 37s but I don't like to chance things. rather be safe than sorry. I'm also running 5.13 so MY pinion is what concerns me on my 30.

rolling on 37" MTR/K's with the discount tire MB72(?) allows. Super light combo, and I think that helps, lighter than my 35" MTZ on steelies. Put them on mid August. Have had the EVO sleeve and c-gussets for more than a year though, and 5.13's since this spring. It is a great combo with the superchips, but I've never been one to tear up the highway anyway. I only hit the trails about once every 3 months and have been taking it easy with greens, but now that I added some skid plates underneath, I'll venture into the robins egg blues.

That's what I plan on doing except I don't want to upgrade my D30 I'd rather put the money into my pr44. My jeeps not a daily so I'm not to concerned but if I break something it may be down for awhile depending on what breaks.
