    Buy this setup with the ARB then sell your stock rear end with the E-locker it will sell faster that way and for more money which will help you pay for the new setup in the front:thumbsup:

    People were breaking rock jock axles left and right, bending axles, horrible customer service, etc.. And RST said in their experience Dynatrac is better made.

    To be honest I don't trust anything said by anyone that may be "sponsored" officially or unofficially by a company. RST has some cool rigs but I doubt they paid retail for everything on those rigs, until I see receipts for everything installed on their rigs I'll be skeptical of their opinions. I maybe completely wrong on that, but I've been heavily jaded by all the illegal advertising I see on Instagram, and as such don't trust much I see nowadays.

    Interestingly, Googling around it's hard to find anything about broken Dynatracs. Also of interest, it is possible to find a couple reports on broken Curries. Though the ones I saw seemed to involved jeeps on 40"+ tires and v8 swap/hemi conversions. Sounds like some jeepers think they are driving Ultra4 rigs and then crying on the internet when things break. :notsure:

    Yeah I agree they might. Its insane what social media has done.

    Yeah it seems to be the people running 40's, some most i've seen with V8 swaps but some running factory engine. I said that in hopes of Jason running 40's in the future :cookiemonster:

    I just don't get it though. There's absolutely no reason the Dynatrac should be 2x the cost of a currie

    Okay, so how did this happen? Was it his shackle flip that caused too much negative arc for the leafs and the hit wasn't absorbed well enough? I have read your thoughts on shackle flips but he has a fair amount of suspension work on his right. You would think he could hit a was at a medium speed.

    So the boxed frame is a known issue with these trucks? More things to read about.

    Shackle flip plus bump stop extensions means no bump travel. Hit a bump...and there's very little shock left to do any damping. All the speed goes into the next thing...which is the frame.

    He's also running icons up front. I've seen those top hats fail before. Never a King one though......
