Default I need new axles

The factory D 30 made it since 2011. Looking for suggestions

I’ve not parts shopped in a decade. I’m looking at the Dynatrac 44/60 hybrid or the fusion hybrid. Or should we be looking at d60 options?


i only run 37s so not sure if I want a d60 pumpkin hanging low. So I’m torn between d44 and d60 I run about 6 inches of lift on coil overs. Stock power Mostly wheeling on dirt gravel and mud

I can tell you that i had DT ball joints in an old axle, and I currently have a front PR44 with those BJs and a rear full float PR60. needless to say I have had to contact this company from time to time over the years. i will never recommend this brand to anyone. any time I have to deal with them they are a complete waste of time and a headache. customer support is a joke. I would consider Fusion or Currie as axle alternatives only. That is just my experience over 11 years of JK ownership.

Did you bust the D30 or did you just reach a point that you need something stronger?

Wouldn’t 44’s if geared correctly be enough as long as you don’t let it wheel hop excessively? I believe if geared correctly the axles become the weak link with 37’s and if yiu snap one that’s not a real hard or expensive upgrade? Unless of course you increase the HP
