It would make a good 1950s milk truck, that’s probably why they have the beefier axles out back.

JL axle is 7mm thick vs JT’s 10mm, plus cast iron steering knuckles if I’m not mistaken

The window sticker shows “M210 Wide HD Tube Front Axle”

Weird, my Fiancee's 2021 High Altitude window sticker does not match, there is no mention of wide axles. Also nothing about 3.73 gears. I can tell that the window sticker that you posted is for a 2.0 turbo since it has active noise control, does only the 2.0 turbo get heavier duty axles on the High Altitude? Just when I think that I'm starting to get a feel for what comes on what trim, I run across something like this.

Interesting. Well here is a 3.6 showing the M210 HD front axle

I just crawled under there to confirm, it does indeed have a Dana 44 up front. Not sure why they removed that info from the window sticker. And now the big question still remains why did they do that in the first place? :movember:

Maybe they beefed it up for taking mall speed bumps at high speed.

Could you please post a picture of your weight limits? I’m curious to see front/ rear GAWR
