Without considering lift, what is the biggest tires stock Dana axles can take before any damage? Right now I have stock Dana axles on a 2012 JKU and I am running 35" tires. I am thinking 39 or 40" next go around. I do run off road occasionally, and I make a few trips a year to rock crawl in south Texas.
Thank you all for any input or experiences!

 

There are tons of topics and opinions on this... Depends on many things.

 

40's? You need to invest in Dana60's

 

Thanks. That's the info I wanted to know. I may just stick with 37" next time. I love the badass stance with the 40" tires. My wife gets tired of me throwing money at my jeep. Now I have slow down. The best part is she never knows what things cost. So a Dana 60 to her may be a few hundred bucks. Hahahaha.

 

X2. I personally wouldn't go over a 35" tire with a D30, 37" with a D44, and a D60 for anything bigger. Not to say that it won't work for many, but I prefer peace of mind. Driving style and terrain definitely play into this as well.

 

35 are the way to go not to much strain on axles
