Well that makes a wee bit more sense......didn't know they would be going the CV route. Again though......still doesn't make much sense. It's still a D44 with a D60 center section. Not much stretgh being gained vs the cost of what they are putting into it.

Like we said, right now it is just research. We did change our rear shafts for the Rock Jok 60 to have both the 5 on 5 and 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern so if we decide to go with full 60 outers we will be good to go.
