This is not related to D30. The u-joint wears out overtime anyway, no matter what tires you're running. So you haven't shown any proof of D30 breakage on street. Of course, how would you, you'd need to be in 4wd for it to be getting any power to cause damage. All the other things like ball joints, power steering, etc, that I don't really care about as they are crap stock parts and fail rather soon for many even on stock tires.

 

Hahaha first of all, I'm sure you're very tough, but settle down kid. I'm sure you're also a very knowledgeable guy, with tons of wheeling experience. You do come off as arrogant though, work on the people skills.
There's an old saying...the shallowest creek, makes the most noise...no one is gonna care what you have to say if you if you come off all huffy and puffy, no matter how knowledgeable you are.

Second, I wish I could afford to take off for a wheeling trip the weekend after Christmas, alas, a poor ems workers salary will not allow this ;-)

 

Again,please go back and look at my first posts.I never came across that way until after the insults started flying.as for annoyed,I feel your pain.the op stated that he was on a budget and asked for advice on running 37s stock.please,who in there right mind can truthfully say this is a good idea.these guys are giving the op false info witch in the end is definatly not in his best intrest.you have newbs giving newbs false info and then attacking the guys with the experience who definatly know better when they disagree with whatever it is they want to do.this is not a new development.I have seen some guys on this forum with a lot more experience than me go through a lot of the same crap until finally they just stopped posting.a lot of us guys that are into this way of life really love this sport and are trying our best to help some of these new guys out,we want to see the sport grow but the way these new guys are acting its only a matter of time before we just give up and stop trying to help these guys out all together..

 

Alright then you little loud moulth pos,that is pretty much the last insult iam going to take from you.how about this,since you live in riverside I will pay for your fuel cost since johnson valley is not too far from you anyways,that way I can leave you in that dam canyon broken and running your mouth where you belong...

 

You want to pay for mine too? I want to go break stuff haha jkjk but if im not working im down to go to Johnson valley! (:

 

There's all different kinds of wheeling some areas are more mud than rock. And no one is not saying its not better to beef up the axles specially if your going to do a lot of crawling . But for people that can't throw 20 grand at their rig right away. And want to see their upgrades first via bigger tires than axles and gussets witch are sight unseen. A big reason I went with a rubi is the D-44 upfront and the lockers.

 

Insult? I thought I was pretty matter of fact.
Not my fault you act like an adolescent.

If you're willing to cover my gas plus wages for the day, I'm all about it ;-)

 

I thought just about everyone would have that weekend off,you tell me then,lucky for you I have the 24th through the second off,I will pay foryour fuel and make no mistake...I will be leaving you where you break,we can run sledgehammer first,a few weeks back we managed to run sledge,jack and clawhammer all in one day.I'm still waiting for my new rear 35 spline 300 m shafts since I bent both rear flanges on that trip,the other stuff was minor so I have already fixed all of it...I'm really looking forward to wheeling with you,this trip is going to be too funny...

 

Well, that escalated quickly ....

 

I work on an ambulance, I've worked 6 of the last 7 christmas, I don't know what holidays are...and I'm single lol :P
If you're breaking stuff that frequently you might just wanna take it easy on the skinny.
