'14 JKUR with full RK 3.5" X-factor lift OEM D44 front & rear axle shafts (front gussetted/sleeved) Tom Woods Front DS The vehicle does see time at Moab, SAN Juan mountaiNs, and Rocky Mountains (not a mall crawler) My question is; what should I upgrade next as far as drivetrain goes? Basically, what is the next weakest link in my chain? I am torn between front shafts, rear shafts, or rear driveshaft. Granted, eventually I will upgrade all of them, but trying to prioritize what may leave me stranded...
Sorry, rolling on 35s

unless you have a heavy foot i would just wheel it...no need to replace stuff because it could break someday. I've been on 35s and wheel a few times a month in the rockies for the past 3.5 years, stock axle shafts and rear DS. If you don't know how to drive and have a heavy foot then I'd do rear axle shafts.
