I'm building myself a family rig similar to jaydens but better 😆 .5.3, Whipple, th400, atlas4.3, 14 bolts with 05 knuckles, 40 spline. @BeepBeep fabricated us a baby boy (I helped). View attachment 173025i picked my axles up from the sandblaster yesterday.![20240524_134321.jpg 20240524_134321.jpg](https://www.rme4x4.com/data/attachments/133/133048-e1c2bb8daa1e2549397ec214a7aa5555.jpg)
2005-2008 have stronger knuckles and inner cs. I have one 09 housing and one 05-08 housing. Ima put the stronger crap on the rear. I'd guess the strength difference is within 10%
09' with windows by lower ball joint and slightly thinner casting.
