Yeah, we're on the same page...hell, once I full circle clipped my D30 on my XJ I never had a problem again w/ the shafts on 35s...and the XJ diff was plenty strong. Even rolled it a few times!
I have heard the JKs are weaker.
My buddy runs 37s on his D44s w/ a 6.4L Hemi, alloys, and they've held up. The shafts have twisted, but the tubes have been fine. But he's not jumping it either
