Chromo shafts with 37's will (should) hold up fine as long as you don't drive stupid. Wait until the 30 spline upgrade comes out though. Just my opinion.

Slickwill, let the heat just roll off ya.....It's cyberworld, most of these users aren't even real people. All these hot shots are really just "1" 38 year old fat guy, with a bunch of user names, who drives a '92 Tercel, lives in his mother's garage, sits on the computer all day eating Doritos trying to get a rise out of people like you. Don't sweat it......

The stock shafts are not the strongest. The pic above is definately what everyone needs.

I have to agree. They just had a thing on xtreme 4x4 about axles and stated on there that 33's (35's would be pushing it) were the max you would want to go, on the X versions. They used 34's for their stage 1 but upgraded their axles in stage 2, with the 37's. The axles just aren't strong enough.

Default 37's

I also have been wanting to go with 37's when I decide what lift I am getting. I talked with RedRockJK and he told me at the dealership where we both bought ours there was 3 or more jeeps that had broken axles running 35's. Looks like dirve shafts need to be upgraded before anything. Will hope everthing works out for ya. Looks like time for you to upgrade.
WHERE CAN THESE SHAFTS BE PURCHASED? THANKS.
