If you're running 33's, I'm willing to bet you'll break a diff housing before you break CV's...

Running my 32's, I haven't broken a housing yet.  Gone through many CV's though.

I also run a 4.24:1 crawler gear though.  That would realy help brake those CV's.  :P

Well of course!  ;D

I don't think I've broken one going nice and slow (rocks)

It's always been heavy on the peadle and mud.

Not many but I've found one or two...

Most rock crawling I've done has been down at the Badlands.

Get a Calmini 3" lift, and then run it with heavy 33's without the recommended weight on the front bumper. ;)

Over extended shafts make the inner pop apart and fuck up the cup.

Its cause your open in the front. Put a locker in there and add a 4 to 1 Then rod the piss out of it! ;D

Locker + 4to1 =   :'(  ( if you have stock shafts...and like to rod on it)

Hmmm Auto, 34's, open, light foot,   Maybe I can wheel all weekned on the same set of shafts.  I'll be holding my breath.  Not much angle on my CV's but I finished getting the 4.25:1 gears in the case last night so at least I'll have the torque to break them if I need it.

The only gripe I have about my kick is there is no droop in the front end at all. Maybe a half inch. Its pretty retarded.

Welcome to my world ;D

The only additional weight I have up front is a 40lb tube bumper... the lift was designed for calmini's 90lb bumper and a winch... that's why mine rides high and has no droop from normal ride height.

Hopefully Hagen's widening mod/cutting the spring will help out some. :-/
