    Mark, the guy I bought the axles from had em' under his old dodge with 38"s before he went to 60's and 42"s. He told me how he went through plenty of hubs due to the weight of the dodge and tires, but he said since the jeep is light that I'd probably be Ok. But I think after talking to ya'll I'll stick to a set of 36 or 37" Iroks. I hear they're lighter than TSL's and a little bit more accurate when it comes to true size. Cody's look good on his YJ, so I'll probably end up with the same. As for next weekend, bring it on, we'll have a good time.

    35s are the biggest I'd want to run on a d44. Or maybe 36s weren't bad either. I think jeep did better with 35s on the d44 than it would have with 38s because I didn't really have to worry about breaking it all the time. Just burn the 35s untill they're hot, it'll go. I've got huge hubs that don't break.

    Before you bolt up those axles, take out your biggest grinder and shave them. You should also build a diff guard.

    Wrong there are many millers that will run flux core.

    most migs come ready to weld with flux, but can also run gas if you want to add the tank

    And you can load any mig that uses gas with flux core and actually get some good strong welds with it, instead of the crappy welds from solid core.

    If you have a good mig, you can lay some good strong beads, you just have to know how to run it, and set it up right
