I know a ton of people go through this decision with they get the JKU but Im stuck between 35's and 37's.... Can a trussed axle (dana 30) hold up over time with 37's?
The truss strengthens the axle itself but does nothing for what I consider the weaker link...the axle shafts, ring & pinion. Unless you are doing high speed off road runs or REALLY bouncing your rig around you probably won't break the actually axle housing. I think a truss is fairly cheap insurance though, because it is certainly possible to bend an axle tube, just make sure you have someone that knows what they are doing when they weld it on.
You have the newer 3.6 motor correct? That allows you to gear correctly but not be on such a deep gear that they get weak. 5.13 and numerically up gears in the D30/44 get small on the pinion gear.
I would definitely do chromo axle shafts and high quality U joint for the 37's. Also, gusset the C's.
Can I D30 hold up to 37's...yes, but it depends on your driving style. If "easy does it" is something you can live with on the rocks, then many folks make this livable . If you like to use the throttle and spin tires, I wouldn't do it.
