Wow... I need a moment...
There's definitely to be said for the right axles and the right gears! What were those < 40" tires in the first vid?

im telling you thats exactly what i'll be doing next. im gonna run these built 1/2 tons for a year or so and i'll be going to rocks. i just think they are the ticket.
de-brake them, flip the hubs, mohawk the pans, weld up the spider gears, install pinion brakes. pretty much bullet proof and far cheaper to build than tons.
