i think it is as much about the terrain and the driving style than just the tyres, but for the sake of reference, i have some trail tough chromo front axels with 35" krawlers that are so far handling the load just fine.

Unfortunately though, PigDog runs a coiler so there's no off the shelf CrMo options due to the wider track width

Another axle option is Range Rover. They are quite wide but have excellent brakes, are full floating, and have quite small centres so ground clearance isn't hurt too badly.

They are also offset correctly, and set up for A frame rear/radius front.

They'd need 4.7 diff gears from a series land rover though.

MQ/K are hard to work with for coils as the front diff is cast with a spring pad (for leaves) already cast in. It's possible, just messy.

I'd agree that Bundy rear is a good move- It's already even set up for radius arm+panhard - your existing suspension setup.

I think I'd go for a bundy front too rather than stuff around with hilux.
