Trail gear axles

I'm going to regearing soon and need to replace my pass axles.

I was looking into getting TG axles. Is anyone running them? Are they worth buying or is OEM enough.

I'm currently running 33s with thoughts of going to 35s

 

I upgraded to TG shafts after this:

Yeah looks like you needed them. What were your thought when you first got them did you feel like it was money well spent?

Also iirc your running 4:88 on 33s. How do you like that set up? Is it hwy friendly?

 

I paid $280 for mine and i LOVE THEM! i mean they are just metal so its nothing fancy but after snapping a stock shaft resulting in $900 in damages to my rear axle i figured it would be a good idea to play it safe and upgrade while i was replacing EVERYTHING inside the axle (i guess wheel bearing failure is the real reason everything went to shit but you know...details )

Yes i also have 4.88s and 33s... on the highway 3000rpm only gets you going about 80mph (which f**king sucks!!!!) but other than that the truck is torquey as shit and so much fun to drive haha.
If i was going to do it again i would probably go for 4.56s but since my future plans involve 35s i think i made the right choice with my 4.88s

Also, i never have to down shift on the highway or anywhere really for that matter which is a HUGE plus.

 

Damn sounds gnarly especially since I'm gonna have to start traveling 49 miles 4 days a week in June. But I have plans to go 35s as well but sometimes things don't go as planned. I guess I'm gonna have to really think about it. But I would look forward to the torque. I'd I gathered 4:88 route
