I have got a tray back defender and Iam running 38 inch maxxis creepy crawlers and I have broke a few diffs and half shafts now so i had the opertunity for the sailsbury axles and heard they were strong so wanted to give them a go see how they perform off road and see if they would hold out lol

Yes I have found this out the front ones are rare there's a few on eBay but they are silly money but the plan was to build them up repainted and buy either the arbs or the Detroit lockers for them with the new diff guards to make look fresh
