My truck has a 8 inch Ready Lift suspension lift on 22" x 12" rims with 35" tires.
6.2 engine. I have put it in 4 wheel drive 4 times and broke the front axle twice

asphalt road with water running over it at an idle. SOMETHING IS WRONG!!!!!!

Lift, tire mod equals higher heat and stress. Are you jumping railroad tracks with that thing...lol may wanna upgrade to the 3500HD
