Want me to prove you wrong? All of us know that destroying axles can be done on a D44 or D60. I have seen it. Our local shop here who builds $60K rigs used to have a D30 on his truck, had 35" swampers, huge offset and beat the **** out of it and could not wreck the axle. However any axle when the wheels are turned, your locked and you give it too much gas will tend to destroy parts. I am not doing any major rock crawling, I beat the stock IFS up, put it through its paces and never had I destroyed it until 2 months ago when I pushed her too hard. Some of us can't afford new D44 and D60's so all I ask is that you keep on doing what you do best and I keep doing my build. Lets see you chop the back off an xterra and make all the mounts and brackets from scratch. That takes balls, maintains a budget and makes it fun! That's what makes this sport so fun. As I said before right now the D30 goes in and when I have more money a D44 goes in. I appears you had not had a chance to read my build thread.
I am curious to see the final shape of the fenders however. Because that is going to take some serious cutting in order to stuff those beastly tires.
These goodyear 37's are huge! haha. These are actually larger than the 37" BFG KM2's on my pathfinder.
Once everything is done and back on level ground I'll post measurements.
That picture looks so deceiving with regards to tire size! Hard to believe they are 37's. What kind of height are you getting from the bottom of the rocker panels to the ground?
Looks good.

Time to start budgeting for the wife's rig.

Damn you. I should have never clicked on this thread.
Would Rugged Rocks make my X super sexy if I sold a kidney? I've got one to spare.
