What axle shafts are everyone running with the pro rock 44 housing? I will be getting a NON-rubicon unlimited housing, ARB and 4:88s and I really don't want to run the RCV shafts. What are my options?
If you get the 35 spline ARB, there might be more options available to you.
We Currently don't have any other option but we are working on a solution with Ten Factory that will allow those that don't want RCV's to get a Chromoly U-joint style axle shaft. It will be about $2-300 cheaper than the RCV's

Yea I plan to go 35 spline front and rear ARB with chromo shafts for the rear.
You may want to call ORE and ask whose chromo shafts they are using.
Maybe CTM?
I know that the G2 gold shafts are made in USA. They are only available in the 35 spline configuration which if your going with an aftermarket locker is the way to go. I personally am running the standard G2 Chromoly shafts I'm my PR44 with the factory locker. ORE did my install and sold me the G2 shafts since I didn't want the RCVs
I am not a big fan of the 35 spline shafts in the front. They are prone to axle seal leakage and the neck up so you are only really getting larger splines.

That's interesting I wasn't aware that it's just the larger splines I thought it would be a larger shaft the whole way through. What do you guys recommend for us wanting to replace the factory rubicon locker down the road ? ARBs replacement locker calls for 35 spline shafts.
