I think many people believe they have an easy repair or "fuse" that is protecting other parts (maybe a D30). I personally do not believe in this at all. I have a laundry list of parts we damaged or broke in a D30 (including RCV shafts) and the cheap grease-able 1310 u-joint on the drive-shaft was, and still is, happy as a peach under the Jeep.
It is probably like how some people can run a D30 with 37" tires and how mine started to smile with 35"s after a few wheeling trips. You might be fine but there is a chance you will brake it depending on how you wheel it. I like the do it once do it right method.
