Don't buy anything from them. The tradeoff is that they make promises they don't keep and then when they don't do what they said they were they don't even refund the difference.68ford said:
What really got me ticked off is that I specifically told them time was more important since I had a run coming up. Then they didn't promise me just once but several times they promised it within a few days. At the same time I went to Dutchman to get my axles and disk brakes (part of which had to come from Randy's R&P) and I had them in 3 days. When I finally did get the parts the 35 spline Detroit Locker and several other parts came directly from Randy's R&P. That made me even more PO'ed because they had previously refused to refund my money a couple weeks earlier because they had already received the Locker which was a special order. This wasn't just a problem getting a return taken care of but rather they failed to deliver what they promised after taking my money and then kept making promises that they never followed through on. They also never (not even once) returned my calls when I left messages (About 1 a day for a week). I had to keep calling until someone actually answered. In the end I made it to the run but I was up until 2 or 3 in the morning that day out in the cold putting it together because I didn't get all of the parts until the day before. If Dutchman hadn't have done such a great job with their part of it I would have been steaming the entire time I was doing it. I just wished I would have given them all of the business instead of just part of it.bandit said:
Dutchman's will probably cost a little more for the axles but they have a lifetime warranty on the 35 spline axles and have an excellent reputation both in the off road world and in the racing world. I've never actually bought anything from Complete Off Road but a lot of others here have and most of them were really happy with what they got. If I needed another set of front axles then I would probably get them from there since they have an excellent package deal going. I can't help with the u-joints since I've never needed any that would be driven for a lot of miles on the road. I loke the Super Joints but I just don't know if they would work over the long haul on the street. So far everything I've seen indicates they would be fine but without a real test I just don't know.bandit said:
Yes. (See thread title). 35 spline axles can be put in a Dana 44 but it isn't the simple job it is with the rearend. To fit them there needs to be changes at the knuckle as well to benefit from them. Otherwise you are still running stock outers and stock ears. When I go to 35 spline in the front it will be a 609 instead. (A 9" center with Dana 60 outers) For the parts you need Complete Off Road should be able to set you up.bandit said:
