It was great meeting some more new people as always, had a great time.

I got a question for the bama guys that took us on the Sunday run. What do you guys call that trail and is there a map for the area. I saved the start on my GPS because I really wanna go back there.

Swapping out those axle shafts was super quick though...it'll be even easier for you since you can throw it up on the racks.
mine actually helps me build fox bodies. And I occasionally let her drive them as well

Most of, if not all of the axle shaft failures, at least here in the South, have been in the rear. Gussets are used typically in the front to strengthen the C's so while not directly related to the axle failures we've experienced, they're still not a bad idea especially if you're running 35's or larger.

I've seen a silver Unlimited here locally with the C's gusseted. Looked good.

Yes, Im aware they're used in the front. I said I was curious, not stupid.
My question is in regards to the combination of chromolies and gussets.
