It's been holding up to the 400 fine so far. No weird noises or slop in the gears, and plenty of boosted launches. As goes for the axle wrap, I'm switching to a 4 link and coil overs on the rear to help. Truck hooks pretty decent even with the open diffs, because these weight transfer very well on the leaf springs. I'm probably going to swap a montero rear end in for LSD. Also haven't broken the driveshaft yet. Tbh, I'll probably find the limits of them eventually the old fashioned way lol, but for now everything is doing great.
