Why not a set of LMTV axles? They are only 4 inches less clearence then the Mogs, and they can take a lot more power and abuse then the Mogs! You can also run the MRAP suspension and have better ride and weight capabilities and more articulation. These axles are a hell of a lot cheaper to buy, and there are locking diff options and gear sets that are pretty much drop in!I'm looking at options... maybe its best to run shortened/narrowed GM 14 bolts or Dana 60 axles and the Axletech portal units even if they're massively heavy....... because the Axletech units have 4 gears in each piece for maintaining standard rotation.... if it still ends up needing to modify, weld, etc the axle parts in order to make them work with the portals and the sizes I'm wanting to go with...
On the other hand.... maybe I can live with banging the differential pumpkins everytime I find a rock taller than the ground clearance
Or live with taking out a loan and just acquiring a Pinz... how much maintenance do they need compared to "modern" passenger vehicles? I know the AM General Humvees need a LOT of maintenance
