Weight and turning the tires are the biggest factors. Do your gussets and call it good. Much more than that could had been money put towards a D44. I'm running 37/13.50/17 Nitto Mud grapplers, not many tires are as heavy as these and currently rolling with a D30, with 5.13 and gussets. I just make sure I lay off the skinny pedal.

Anyone running stock gears with the Dana 30 on 37? I know about the loss in power and what not but I'm looking to see the changes of breaks. I heard you want to have lower gears to prevent breaks in that area? What's too low and what's too high? Is there a limit? Thanks. Sorry if I'm bugging you guys. I just would like to know
