What's everyone's thoughts on the new Currie Rock Jock 70 full floater rear axle? Do you think it will be stronger then the 60 full float? Obviously it will have larger gears, but what about it being a high pinion application?

Second question for those with the Rock Jock 60 rear semi float, has anyone had issues besides Huck's ring and pinions? Anybody bend some axle flanges? I hear that is a common occurrence.

Um...what?

I have a Currier 60. I like it. I've busted the rock skid. Easy fix. I also tore of the upper rear link mounts. I had it welded up and added some gussets for strength. The tabs could be stronger. Would I buy it again? Yes.

There will always be something better and stronger.

No problems from my RJ 60, but i dont run a hemi, or a real motor!https://posse4x4.org/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-smileys/icon_drool.gif

I consider myself to be harder than average on my jeep as well. It's probably the lack of HP n torque saving me.
