You can spend your money on whatever you want, but one wonders why when the improvement is cosmetic.
Again, I needed an 8 lug axle for my project. Sourcing an old 14 bolt axle in my area, rebuilding and re gearing would have cost me the same or more than what I spent on the AAM 11.5 + the regear. There is no downside.
