[QUOTE="Jeepguy1, post: 422409, member: 17903"] Yes, they crack, but it takes all the power that my 1/4” impact driver will go..... lmao... smartass. Second question.... I’ve spent the last month working the numbers and talking to friends in the local clubs about your exact question. I have a 30/44 combo as you do. After much deliberation..... I have the manual 6 speed: 4.10/chromoly axles/rear posi and an open front with a selectable locker, is a good combination for a 315/35” tire I’m doing the posi/locker combination because of my experience, not on the advice of anyone else. The carriers need to be changed anyway, and I’ll have it torn down to that point... I hate doing it all twice. I didn’t opt to an open/selectable in the rear because it is still driven daily. If you have an auto, I’d lean towards the 4.56, and all the rest the same as above. I like my rpms to sit around 2300 when on the hiway, and those combinations will get you close. There are guys that will tell you that you should be running more RPMs than that, but they haven’t seen the dyno charts, or don’t know how to interpret them [/QUOTE]
