So the ranger is on hold for now until I get my new DD/tow rig, but in the mean time I'm gonna keep buying stuff and looking around.
My current dilemma has to do with building the D44 or getting a D60...
I'm gonna go full hydro, but idk if i should keep the D44 and buy knuckles and HS arms to put the full hydro to that, or get a D60 and do it to that axle..
I won't be going above a 35 for a while, maybe 36s.. I have no plans to get rid of the 4.0, but i do plan on a doubler setup at some point.
Chromo/alloy shafts with some CTM joints should make the D44 hold up pretty good right? I really don't see the point in spending the money on a 60 if the D44 will work.
On the other hand a stock 60 would be pretty strong as is..
The D44 is already geared, spooled and under the truck.. the D60 would be like starting all over again, and I dont have the tools to do that..
can i get some ideas?
