I don't get why they beefed up the tube to be basically Dana 60 thickness but then plug welded the fad on. The stock axle tubes themselves are damn strong, but the fad is a ticking time bomb if you don't truss and gusset.

Seriously dude. It’s a disaster waiting to happen. Granted you can prolong it for a good amount of time. But when it happens it’s bad….. off-road tow recovery costs can be insane thank god I was at the end of the trail.

How are you liking the Fusions so far? I am about to have mine installed here at the end of the month. Super excited. The kingpin setup looks beefy as heck!

It’s pretty massive man lol. Pictures don’t give you the right perception. It sits almost 7 feet tall. Driving it feels like a tank.
