Funkel 10-08-2001, 03:12 PM 3 TJs, 35s locked f/r D44 rear, D30 front. Damage report: 1 BFG. U-joints: Zero. Pics: http://www.offroadmarketing.com/archive/Pics/sledge/sledge6.jpg The rest from my camera here: http://www.offroadmarketing.com/archive/Pics/sledge/ More soon. Dingo 10-08-2001, 03:39 PM Don't know if you know or not, but your TJ should have U-joints the same size as a D44. Doesn't suprise me that is didn't break..... nasvik 10-08-2001, 03:47 PM Huh. I've broken a dozen D44 U-joints in the last year. <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/thefinger.gif" border="0"> Couldn't break the CTM joints this weekend though, but I sure tried. I think if I had, there's a good chance I wouldn't have done all the damage I did. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> Paul Funkel 10-08-2001, 03:50 PM Yes Paul... I know you've broken a dozen <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> I've watched you break my share too! Apparently I'm not trying hard enough. nasvik 10-08-2001, 03:53 PM Just saying that a D44 U-joint isn't bombproof. <IMG SRC="smilies/thefinger.gif" border="0"> Paul Funkel 10-08-2001, 03:59 PM Apparently it is now? camo 10-08-2001, 03:59 PM so how did you like the hammers? Funkel 10-08-2001, 04:03 PM I've ridden them, and walked them... But to drive them?? HELL YEAH!!! Sign me up. Glad I'm only 160 miles. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> RockdogzYJ 10-08-2001, 04:03 PM seth- how long you had that 8274? the trip looks like it was loads of fun... ....in the sun Dingo 10-08-2001, 04:05 PM Apparently it is now? Not saying that at all.....but there are others who run much larger tires and much heavier vehicles and don't break all that often on them. Not trying to start anything, just saying that the joints you are running aren't the same old D30 joints that they use to come with. Good job on not breaking..... <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0"> Funkel 10-08-2001, 04:05 PM Randy, I picked up the 8274 about 6 mos ago after my 9500 was stolen. Its a much beefier winch. I like it and have no cooling issues.
