That can be an age old offroaders battle. Some say the kingpin is stronger some say ball joint, some say about the same. I personally feel a king pin axle is a little stronger but a ball oints one is fine. Nothing that you will have problems with.

> There's a 44 K-pin axle?????????
Early Broncos had them (Dana 30) and F-100s had them (Dana 44). Just search on "mini-king pins".
I would go for the balljoint axle because parts are WAY easier to find and much cheaper. When you start to run larger tires the mini-king pins have some strength issues.
