ok, the 10 bolt is the weak link, the 12 bolt will take some **** and abuse, but if anything will blow, it will be the fron diff first, so prepare for it, what u want to find is a corporate 12 bolt, they are tough as nails and arent as expensive as a dana 60, with 37's a 12 bolt front should hold up fine, but when looking for the front diff make sure the gears are the same as the rear
