You’d have to be doing something insane to break the rcv’s. And your steering in 4wd will be so much smoother. Just skip the 300m and you’ll be well matched to the diff parts.
They are on my want list.
I’ve had RCVs in my JK since May 2010. They are smooth but the ticking drives me nuts. I rebuilt once but ticking again. They were around $1000 when I got them more now. Not sure I’d pay for that ticking again.
Mind never ticked that I know of.
My phase II consists of a 3.5 inch lift, beadlocks, 39’s, truss, RCV’s, ball joints and a regear to what I’m not sure yet.. might be 4.10’s if 4.30’s don’t exist then because 4.55 I think would be too tall.
4.10 for 37-38. 4.56 for 39-42. 4.88 for anything pass that
RCV told me verbally that the stronger material is too strong. That the diff components would become the weak link in an event where the axle shaft were really pushed. The axle would break other things. This was during a time where stock was an issue. I could get the 300mm stufff, but the normal one was a wait. They said to wait, so I did.
I kept it. I’ve heard a lot about fad failures on earlier jeeps, but have yet to hear it about JL or JT. and RCV is just making it stronger. I didn’t want to lose the functionality, especially with a 4hi auto transfer case. I do have a bullet proof skid on my fad from next venture.
