Well, I've been out wheeling 3-4 times since going 37's and 5.29's. So far I've blown up a Birf (replaced with Longs), and now twisted the splines on the short side rear shaft (e-locker). I'm not even that hard on the truck.
Luckily the splines twisted pretty close to the end (closest to flange) which still allowed the locker to disengage. Re engaging was a different story though. I was able to extract the shaft with no issues and a buddy (Delancy) graciously offered up a spare. Everything works great again, for now. Is this going to be a common occurrence or just a here and there thing? Guys with e-locks and 37's?
I know LT has a shaft mod in the works that eliminates the unnecessary splines that would perhaps make running this setup more feasible.
Opinions?
