Still a D35 naysayer. Those little tires on there never seemed to catch traction.

I just like to poke fun at those that feel like they HAVE to get gid of the 30/35 and switch to a 44 to make it a competent trail rig when most of them will never wheel there rig as hard as the guy in the video. On a diffrent fourm few believe that I wheel locked 30/35 on 37's aired down and not brake something every time I wheel.

That is right Greg. A lot of it is wheeling style. Could I brake mine. I am sure if I set my mind to it I could do it quickly. I once bent two D44 axles and a D44 front. But that was a crazier time of life

Most of my rock wheeling is done at walking speed. Slow and easy

Still not impressed. No lockers, no doors or windows making it a few hundred pounds lighter than normal haha, and tires not much larger than stock.

Still a fun video to watch. And while I trust my D30 with no problems I still wouldn't trust a D35. I'd still wheel on it but would keep an eye out for a cheap C8.25.

I did and if you will listen someone says he broke a front axle. But I think a lot of diffrent axles could have broken being pounded like that

I know mine is still at stock height and only 235 75/15 tires but I lucked out and got a semi floater. I have a 44 under my bench ready to be built IF I need to but planning to beat the piss out of my 35 before I swap.

It's pretty obvious that his Jeep is just a beater. Disposable. I like to watch that stuff, but I'd never do it to my MJ...too much time, money and work into it. Plus I'm older and less er...uh...rash!
