Maybe your dad didn't tell you about it because he doesn't want you to f**k with it ! Leave it alone . I think it's funny that you show up , see the Jeep , and now YOU make plans for his build ! Sounds like the type of wheeling HE does , the existing axles will be just fine for awhile. Even though I have bent my stock front axle , doesn't mean thet are built out of tin like you may have read. Maybe HE would just gusset them with sleeves

I have a Dynatrac Pro rock 44 Unlimited, RCV shafts, ARB locker, ball joints and could not be happier with it. It is very stout and capable of anything I'll throw at it. I went with a rubi rear axle for cost reasons ($900) and will put an ARB locker and shafts in it if/when the factory e locker fails (would have been $1800-2000 to go this route).

Wow that was fast! Asked some questions and bam here you are ready to rock! That's awesome! I stew over stuff for so long, I can't imagine just jumping in like that. But I am way jealous too! LOL!

I honestly feel that he didn't mean to be cruel or disrespectful to the guy or his dad. The guy didn't really explain that his dad "asked" for the help. He was just acting on information given. No intent of disrespect was intended, I'm sure. That's the beauty of this site, many differing opinions. My take.
