I'm just curious if my stock front 44 will hold up with just gussets and 37s for the time being I don't wheel crazy hard but I do like to get a little silly sometimes

Awesome, I might just have to get some new tires :D
Well wayalife(Eddie) is running the d44 on rubiCAT with EVO gussets, arb locker and 35 spline axle shafts, on 37'' trail grapps and he wheels the heck out of that rig.
Since u still have the e-locker, only use it when its absolutely necessary. I used my rear on a trail run with snow every where thinking it would help and I had to drive around for 3 days with the rear locked. It wouldn't disengage for the life of me and I took it to the dealer and they replaced the whole carrier under warranty.
I have put 27k miles on my jeep in just over a year with 37's on and I'm still running stock ball joints which I plan on buying pretty soon. The d44 should hold up for a while as long as you wheel smart. You don't want to shock load your trying to make it over a tough obstacle. If your on the throttle all crazy and the jeep is bouncing around....something going to give, most likely your axle shafts. One more thing, you should try not to go over a tough obstacle with the wheels fully locked in either direction. Doing this will cause a bearing cap to come off and most likely break the ear off the shaft as well. Most people buy chromoly shafts with full circle clips to prevent this because the factory shafts only have C-clips, and they tend to fall out

I plan on doing cromolys when I regear but for now I wud love to run those Toyos they are massive but I feel like the nitto TGs are the smarter idea. Hopefully some other will chime in also but either way ill be on 37s soon ;-)

If your wheels are wide enough to run the yogis, go for it. What backspacing do you have

A lot of people run Alloys with full circle clips. I tried getting these a while back and they were backordered for like 2 months. So I got ten factory shafts instead and they were in horrible condition. I will post so pics right now

Here's the first set I got. The driver side shaft is covered in grease while the other shaft is clean as a whistle. And look at the ears for the bearing caps, one on them is thin a hell and is going to fail in that spot

I saw a set of 4.88 front and rear for like 700 might just scoop them up and put them in than worry about axle shafts when I break a stock one

I'm running 410 with Toyo's 37s and its fine. Hit 100 mph is no problem at all its easy with the new 3.6 motor. 12.5 and 13.5 is not that much different as you can see in the picture.

In my opinion I like the looks of the Toyo's better.
