Rough country ring and pinion 1.5 year review

[@sixpest]

With REAL offroading too. Yeah Forum members really were wrong about it, Cant wait to see you with the 40s Good luck and strength with your jeep You are the best with the jeep videos!

[@JeepTrailsandBarbells]

@@sixpest thank you! I really appreciate that.

Man.. I love people like you who break the myth… I have been contemplating to rehear my Dana 30 and put 37 and feared it may break. I don’t off-road, I am more just for sure. I should be ok for a long time just being a mall crawler

[@JeepTrailsandBarbells]

Oh, for sure, the dana 30 will be just fine on 37s. And if you dont do any wheeling, you dont have nothing to worry about at all. I have videos of us wheeling all over Texas, Arkansas, and Missouri. Drove it there wheeled it, drove it home. The dana 30 has never given us any issues at all.

[@AdventuresOfRogersAndHenderson]

To say you got your monies worth, would be an understatement!

[@JeepTrailsandBarbells]

Oh, for sure. I was going to go with yukon originally, but just a 4.56 R&P for the dana 44 was going to be almost 800. So 700 for both front and rear and the install kits is an absolute win.

Thanks for the info. What was the condition of the rough country ball joints when you changed them?

[@JeepTrailsandBarbells]

You are welcome. They weren't too bad. I could have kept running them, to be honest. But since i was already going to be striping the front end down, i changed them out.

[@robertcouse3961]

@@JeepTrailsandBarbells Cool, Thanks. Nice to know there good quality.

[@JeepTrailsandBarbells]

@robertcouse3961 they really are, and for 130 its hard to beat. If i didn't think they were worth it i wouldn't be using them again. But im glad this was helpful to you.

[@AdventuresOfRogersAndHenderson]

3:50 those splines look almost brand new!

[@JeepTrailsandBarbells]

Yep, 14 years and some really good abuse over the last 3 years. But you know, a dana 30 is made of glass and cant handle anything bigger then a 35 😏🤣

[@AdventuresOfRogersAndHenderson]

Hey brother! Haven’t seen an update from ya in a while… hope you’re doing well!

[@JeepTrailsandBarbells]

Thank you for checking in! And i am doing well. I got sick really bad last week again and was dealing with that. But im feeling much better now. It was also my 16th anniversary on Wednesday, so my wife and i have been spending a lot of time together.
