I'm currently running 235s but my next set of tires may be 30".
I want better brakes and would like to rest assured that my junk will never, ever break. So I'm thinking either after market shafts + WJ swap on my Dana 30 + shafts in my 29 spline 8.25 OR go with Wagoneer 44's.
I figure if they're 44s running a 30" tire, I don't need to spend any money building them - just gotta get them under the XJ.
Ten factory shafts = about $600 w/ shipping, add another $300 to finish my WJ swap parts collection, about $350 for 8.25 shafts shipped. I could invest 1250 pretty quick in the current axles.
Am I crazy to think I can put bone stock 44's under the XJ for a similar price, and have a stronger / better setup when I'm done?
