New buggy is gonna have a 14 bolt front. I was messing around with east coast gear and WOD axle builder on their websites. I can build a front with 40 spline shafts and ctm joints for about a 1000 cheaper, than 35 spline with 300m rcv's. I know the 40 spline will still be a one ton joint and that has been discussed hundreds of times. Just trying to check all options. Seems like it is usually the shafts that break, so having the larger shaft would make up for not having 300m. I could do 35 spline stuff with ctm joints and if I start breaking them get 300m rcv's and have spares.
Just wondering which route would be better if I could save money up front it would get my buggy finished sooner, I know there are lots of buggies out there that don't have rcv axles and take a beating like the Bacon's. I am still running Spicer joints in a lp 60, so all of it is an upgrade for me
