Diff bends
Good day
I am new to the Jeep family. I have a Jeep Wrangler 2007 unlimited sport. I heard that this model Jeeps has a problem with the diff bending very easily. Please advise.
Thank you

There are quite a few reports of bent C's, and to a lesser extent, bent tubes and shattered housings. You will find plenty of threads in the Modified Tech area to read through.
Do some research so you know what to look for, learn what the preventative steps are, then decide what, if anything, you want to do. Could be you leave it alone and hope. Could be that you do some welding, or just move to beefier axles.
C Gussets
Sleeves (inner and/or outer)
Truss
CA Skids
Upgrade to an aftermarket or junkyard 44/66
