Agreed, they do next to nothing but hold gears. They do however provide support for the shock towers. So if you find yourself casing jumps and bending upper shock bolts and standoffs, I would throw caution to the wind. You might just end up ripping the shock tower mount screws out of the diff.
For some reason numbers stick very well to mind here too!
Yeah, that is a good point. But time will show what happens. No reason to change them before it eventually happens. And as you know this car is more onroad than offroad now, so it won't get that much bashing and jumping anymore
