Default Which axle shafts for ProRock D44 housing?

Just purchased a ProRock D44 housing with Pro Steer ball joints but still contemplating on the right shaft to install. What axles are you running in your ProRock D44?

I'm running open carrier, 5.13's and RCV shafts but I also heard that chromoly shafts with u-joints should hold up good too from what I heard. I heard there's a clearance issue with the RCV shafts and the ProSteer ball joints.

Im running the chromolys with u joints in my pr44. They seem to be doing fine for me. If i ever do break one ill more than likely go rcv or sell the pr44 and do a d60
