Re: Need help finding some diff replacement tech.

with the cost of nissan upgraded axels and cv,s costing $2000 as well as hubs . wouldn't it be a better approach to go with the rovertracks 30 spline toyo conversion . then you would have a higher clearance and stronger cv,s and axles with less fab for the transport department to pick on
