Made my first trip out on the D60 and 14 bolt :headbang:

I beat the snot out of the truck and guess what, i didn't break a damn thing.....been a long time since i wheeled and didn't have anything to fix afterwards :D

Last out to this property i was trying to climb this and whne i got to the top there was an undercut and a broke both the RF D44 shaft and twisted the splines out of the RR 9" Shaft.

Well this time out the ground was a bit wet so traction was a joke in the clay/mud based dirt. Tried a few lines and made a few attempts but couldn't climb it for shit. So i thought i would try one last line :laugh:

Sideways just enough to loose oil pressure. But i did end up firing it up and reverse out of the crack and back on all 4's.

Yea dude, since i went the 60/14 bolt wheeling has been so much more fun....im rocking H1s to, so being able to roll around on near 0 PSI has been the shit. I kick myself all the time for doing a 44 swap first. I wheel how i want to, not how i have to.

This would have def been an axle snapping spot on the 44
