I have a 98 auto with a 4.5" lift on 33's, with front and rear lockers. I just put a aussie locker in the front this past weak and whent out for the first time of the year at slade ky. While out I broke a passanger ujoint which ended up tearing the ears off the drivshaft and outer shaft. Now my question is what should I replace and with what. I'm pretty sure I want to keep this my week point. I'd rather break a ujoint and shaft than a ring and pinion. If I go to cromo axles and better spicer ujoints to be stronger than stock would it be stronger but still my week point? Or should I stick with stock axles and spicer ujoints. Also should I consider changing the unit bearing at the same time. Changed it about 4 years ago just not sure if it could have been damaged at all when the axle broke. Not looking for opinions on changing to a 44 or 60 debate. Going to stick with 33's and the 30 just looking for opinions on best options to do what I'm looking to do with what I have. One other thing I also just put on wheel spacers before this trip can they put more force on the ujoints also?
