just how much stonger is a V6 vs 4c 3rd

OK, I'm sure this has been asked in a different format, I want direct feedback.

1)Just how much stonger is a v6 third? (I know all about 2 pinion vs 4 pinion and dimensional/physical differnences)

2)has anyone had carrier/3rd member failure on a 4cyl? if so, what was your set up? who did it

3)I'm currently running 4cyl's in place of my V6's with no problems and 33" tires.

4)Is it worth putting v6's back in or will my 4cyl 3rd hold up?

5)also I'm going to adding a rear locker, should I put one in the 4cyl and forget about it or save the extra $$ for the V6 ????


ZUK, whats you thoughts?

please stay on topic.
Thanks
Mike

well Mike....the short answer is it's probably not worth swapping to V6. A properly set up "4 cyl" 3rd will not be the weak link.
