I'm just gonna go with 30 spline chromolly dutchman shafts cause i've talked to a few guys that are running them and even one guy that has stock 30 spline with a full size chevy that gets hammered on.

I would bet you break your front before one of the rears gives up.

ya, im going to run my front 35 spline chro-mos up front an 35 spline rear 70. but snapping a rear 60 axle with little sewing machine motors are going to be hard. even with big tires are truck still only weigh as much as a paper weight so weight is not an issue. lol

ya, I think they should hold up jut fine but if I bend one I will go bigger.

kiyul4130 · « **Reply #227 on:** Dec 21, 2010, 11:19:43 PM »

consider those things bent. our trucks are heavy. my friends were bending 2 1/4 x 3/8 wall. one of the guys now is running 2 1/2 x .500 wall. its ridiculous. im running 2" x .250 but they are heat treated chromoly links. from all the reading ive done they should hold up fine.
