They normaly don't hold up but everyone drives diffrently,if you drive logging roads or air way down going over medium sized rocks you should be ok, but going over three and four foot rocks all the time I would say noway.

From everything I have read, no.

Try it though and tell me if it works. Or invest in some toyotas or newfield axle shafts.

Im not an expert, but Calmini sells a stronger axel for inside the housing, and sky manufacturing sells a weld on reinforcement for the outside of the axel housing to prevent sag or bending.  Seems like it would be less than 300 bucks for all that, much less than your lockers and tires cost.

I say no. I run 35's on Toyota Axles and recently did this ::)
