front axle upgrades

I've been running a narrowed Ford HP D44 since 2008.
Guess how many shafts I've broken.
Guess how many ring gears I've broken.
Guess how many pinions I've broken.
Guess how many u-joints I've broken.


Give up?

what size tire?
 
35's
RCV/ARB/truss/cover in the D30
Yukon/No-slip/cover/discs in the 29sp 8.25

Busted a D30 ring gear after a shoddy install, been fine ever since
Broke a few teeth off a 8.25 ring gear after 4 years of wheeling, still driveable but I got it replaced.

I am not easy on the skinny pedal at all. The expensive parts give me a lot of confidence and have held up in some very tough spots. Worth every penny.
 
Honestly was just playing devils advocate there. Just trying to get some differing opinions in this thread. I'm going to be running 35s with a lock rite and a cover for a while. Until I get the 44s together. Just want to see how long the thirty lasts.
