Has anyone replaced their axles on their Rams? Im thinking of replacing my front inner and outer shafts, u-joints, and rear axles. I figured that if I replace my gears and add lockers, I should strengthen up the drive axles to be able to handle the added stress. What are your thoughts or experience with stock axles versus heavy duty axles???

Tunis,
I remember reading something on here a while back about someone with a 1500 replacing the front and rear ends with units off of a 2500. That might give you some of what you are looking for. Only problem there is you have to get new 8 lug wheels.

The guy who built this truck emailed me with some pics at work... he wants 6000 dollars per axle. they allow a second axle to be linked behind it for a 6x6 conversion.

You can get shafts from or made by Warn, Superior, Moser... The Warns are through hardend, not surface hardend like the others.

Marc,

That's disgusting! Yuck! :lol: I was just talking about the heavy duty replacement shafts as Jason just mentioned above...

The bumper is sweet though. Hey everyone, TUNIS told me he wanted one of those half shells, but he wants red to contract his silver truck...j/k Tunis.
