Likely I'll have it. It's been there for about a year already.

Hey buddy I have a question regarding your prorock 44, did you use the clayton brackets and coil mounts or the standard mounts for jk's?

The Clayton bracket kit comes as an entire set with all axle brackets. They also offer an additional bridge for the longarmwj kit. I used them all other than the upper mounts nor did I order the bridge. I bought from Clayton but had them shipped to Dynatrac. I told Dynatrac ahead of time not to use the upper mounts and to use the standard jk uppers instead. Plus with Dynatrac, the left upper is cast into the pumpkin. Now, if you're already running a long arm kit, you may want to use the uppers as well as they're taller. Talk to Clayton about that. If you go on their website and look at the bracket kit, there is a photo gallery section and it shows the kit installed on a Rubicon axle with their full long arm kit so you can see how it looks.

Did the fluid change today for the gear break-in. Only 400 miles on them but I had the time to do it today so I did it.

What was Dynatracs break in recommendation? Have you been taking it easy?

Dynatrac didn't specifically give me one, but I found some information on their site and it pretty much matched Nitro and Yukon, drive like a little bitch. 500 mile time frame and yes I was easy on it. Axle has been in for 7 weeks and I've only put 400 miles on it. Haven't had it above 65. The hardest I pushed it at all was that last snow run, and don't think I was that hard on the gears.

Thanks. I am very happy that Dynatrac was willing to build this axle. And they spent the time with me to make sure it was going to work. Prior to them saying yes, I was really looking at a Rubicon takeoff axle that was going to cost roughly the same :grayno:
