Message: [QUOTE="backwoodsboy, post: 833868, member: 5415"] I've got over 50k on slugs. Haven't touched a thing on the front end. You aren't going to wear anything out. Your rear axle shafts are spinning the entire time your truck is moving. When's the last time you heard someone say they wore out an axle shaft? Ring gear isn't seeing any notable wear, as there is nothing resisting the vehicle driving the ring gear. I dropped 0.4mpg going with slugs, and have a little tire scrub at low speed full lock turning. Other than that, nothing to complain about. Most domestic trucks up until the 80's and even modern over-sea's trucks run slugs. Only reason domestics moved away from them in the 80's was the decrease in fuel mileage. [/QUOTE]
