Currie 60s are just as strong as any other 60s out there so they wont bend but the company has had quite a few issues lately with QA so axles have been delivered with issues.

I'll add that there is a history of R&P failures in that axle. In addition, it only takes one call to Currie to discover that they need to be educated on customer service. Comparing apples-to-apples, Currie and Dynatrac price out about the same. I am not recommending either, but Dynatrac is far superior when it comes to customer service.

I find most JK don't care for body damage.

The mopar dana 60 axle looks pretty cool and not a bad price to boot

I'll second what Invest said, Currie needs some education in their customer service. I've got Currie RJ 60's front/rear and if I was to do over, I would go with another manufacturer just for the CS aspect. I've had mine for a long time and never really had any major issues with the front other than seepy seals, the poor tie rod ends (which Currie denied) and my own fault for not going full float rear. On my 2nd set of rear axles due to bent axle flanges... 40's and a heavy jeep like to bend things if you aren't careful. 😁

Thanks for the info everybody. I think currie is out of the picture. Does anyone know if there is enough room to do the drag link flip on the spicer ultimate 60?

There's room for anything, you just have to make it.

I have had the Currie Rock Jock 60s on my Jeeps now for 4 years. I tolled my 2010JKU at Moab last year and trashed/totaled the Jeep. The Currie Rock Jocks were pulled off the old Jeep and are on my 2014 JKU now. Despite the destruction wrought on my poor Jeep the Currie axles held up great. If you look at the King of hammers 4500 class Modified results this year I believe all of the top 5 rigs were sporting CURRIE axles....not Dynatrac. That being said most of the guys I run with prefer Dynatrac and I like them a lot too. You can't go wrong with either.

Well, you are right, I would run Curries if someone bought them for me. I also wouldn't worry since I only need them to last one race at a time.
