So wait they are basically just selling an aftermarket eaton axle. It's a sweet idea but eaton axles an still be sourced at junk yards for pretty cheap with factory 5.13's. I love my 14 (more clearance then my dana 44) but in the future ill Just use rockwells the 14 bolt hubs go right on.

but you can flip the 3rd to have it either low or hi pinion, not to mention front end application. the eaton cant do that. and parts for an eaton are harder to come by than a corporate 14....ya know at your local parts store. not to mention the extreme weight loss this housing has over the eaton. the only thing that worries me is the alumium 3rd......dont want a rock punching through that. also the 8 bolt pinion support will mean custom pinion guards only.
im calling them tomorrow to find out more info. thing has potential.......but i need more info......

The 8 bolt pinion looks like my stock pinion but maybe it's off in some way. It's a great idea and I'm sure they will do well with it.
