Default Front to be paired with a 10.25 Sterling

Yeah, I'm going to have ford axles under the dodge! Sterling is already 35 spline axles shafts and they are plentiful. Also found a mod for the VSS. These are axles are plentiful. Only issue is the carrier design is weak for 38" and larger. This is a much cheaper alternative.

Fix for that is chucking the whole carrier and use the ARB locker.

Could you please point me in the direction of the VSS mod? Also weld the axle tubes to the centersection on that axle! And have you looked for a set of 5.13's for the sterling?

I send it to ya big guy.

I must not have come across the same issues as you about the centersection... lol Sounds interesting.

Yes I've looked at 5.13s from Yukon, like this.

Is there something about them that you're asking?

Last time I checked I couldn't find 5.13's for the sterling. But I didn't look too hard. I didn't think it had a lot of aftermarket support.

They have lockers, gears, and disk brake kits, among other things.
