yeah, it's a lot bigger and stronger. depending on who you talk to, maybe too strong and to the point where you might blow out a ring gear or axle before breaking it.

1310s are really about as strong as anybody should need. Get the 1310s and don't think twice. 1350s are overkill on about 90% of rigs IMO.

there's a lot of merit to this. while i do run 1350's on my white jk, i'm also running prorock 60's and 40x15.50 toyos.

on a 4 door 6-speed and with the amount of lift you have, it's not that necessary. i'd probably run what you have now till it breaks.
