Revolution 1350 axles

[EMRubicon]

I am looking to upgrade my front axles (2004 Rubicon) and I am looking at Revolution shafts with the 1350 U joint. With 35 inch tires and 5.13 gears would that cause my differential to become more of the weak point ?

The outter Cs are the weak points on D30s and 44s.

Not sure you can run a 1350 without clearancing. I'd run the regular sized U joint.

I have zero issues with my revolution shafts, 35s, 4.88s and a Dana 30.

Iffen ya'll ever wonder why it isn't as much fun designing and coming up with cool shit as it should be, read this thread again. I designed the 1350 shafts for two reasons, I was tired of watching folks who had never even broken a stock shaft tell everyone how cool their RCVs are. The 2nd reason is no one else had done it and had not figured out how to do it.

If you're on the OEM Rubicon lockers still, yes - but it's not a new weakness.

Yep,I will most likely never even come close to breaking a stock axle,I new less about stuff than I do now when I bought themdan,the guy that did my gears and lockers agreed,should have just bought the cheaper ones.
