Starting to plan the next step. Which will be a continuation of making my drive train stronger.
I'd like opinions:
Option 1. Chromoly front axle shafts with full circle clips.
Option 2. Drive shafts.
Option 1. Seems to make the most sense to me, since by upgrading I'll now have a set of trail spares with the stockers that I take off.
Option 2 could be a rabbit hole of spending that I don't want to go down just this moment.
The lift that I have (3") included fixed extended control arms (front lowers, and both upper and lower rears.) What I'm wondering is: can I get by without new control arms? Or would I be in danger of trashing my new shafts? (currently 10k on my stock shafts, no boot tears, no noises, knock on wood)
Option D lol. Do the axle shafts now, adjustable arms in a few months, and drive shafts a few months after that.
Really trying to keep my spending under control this year since I overdid it big time last year.
TLDR: for a 2014 2 door manual on 3" of lift with a dana 44 running 35s, which is a more important upgrade for durability sake? Axle shafts, or drive shafts.
