Re: stock YJ wheels
Hang on, it was American Motors that cursed us with 5 on 4.5, vacuum
disconnects, Dana 35s, and slip yokes. The Germans were the first to put
front & rear locking Dana 44s, 4:1 tcase, and 31" mud tires on a
production Jeep. Expect those clever Deutschlanders to continue that
trend with 2007 wrangler/gladiator to anchor the brand as true
offroaders echoing the ww2 legend in order to sell gobs of
bread-n-butter IFS 'softroaders' like libby & grand.

Re: stock YJ wheels
Steve, a broken AMC Dana 35 axle would never fall out. ****** use the
Dana 44 ring and pinion starting with their first Civilian Jeep in '46
switching to the stronger 44 bearings in '48. A the four to one
reduction sun and planetary gears have got to be really tiny and puny,
I'll bet the four to one was stronger in my '56 Cadillac B&M hydro. Real
Jeeps use real gears, not a motorcycle chain. If we depended on the
Rubicon, we would have never made up the beach at Normandy. We thank the
drag strip and Indy for their tires.
