    I went with 67" WMS. It's an inch wider per side. The front end is still considerably wider than the rear.

    No, I figuratively said that. The ammo cans open the standard way, but they are big enough to stuff an M4 into. I keep recovery gear in them, tire change tools, a jack, just BII so to speak.

    You can get kits to mod them for a lock, then just bolt the cans down. I don't lock mine, but I live in a small town and nothing has walked away yet.

    Hmm. It's stronger than a stock Dana 60, but not as strong as a built one(like the rock jock). D60's have 9 3/4" ring gears, I have 9 1/2". A full bananas 9" race rear from Camburg is probably stronger (internally), and lighter, but the Diamond housing is significantly overbuilt. I've never heard of anyone ever bending one, and there are dudes pushing 500+ hp through them on the rocks without issue. Be warned, the lead time for a Diamond sucks. On the other hand it will be exactly what you ordered and will exceed your expectations. After weighing the many options, the strength to weight to clearance to dollar ratio of Diamond axles is the best thing out there, but I don't know that I would stick one behind a blown big block in a full size. For what you do, the Rock Jock would work great for about the same price at the cost of some weight and clearance.

    I don't really have any. I'm usually driving and don't take many pics, maybe my wife has some.
