Yea, Im scared. I'm very much green behind the ears, but Dana 30 on 37's sounds like it's probably not the smartest thing to do.

It'll drive, but plan on getting towed home from your first or second off-roading trip. You can buy a Dana 44 for around $1,500 at the stealership. They are an easy swap.

Dana 30 with 37s, depends on the type of wheeling and driving style. Just because everyone in the magz. have 60s and 14 bolts doesn't mean you need them.

The skinny pedal can be the D30s worst enemy.

If you wheel in rock fields with under cut ledges you will need a bigger axles front and rear. Any wheeling where there is lots of loading and unloading of the axles will gernade the D30.

If you take your time and not get to impatient you can wheel with the D30.
