I am building a 2nd 4x4. I would like it to be an XJ but it needs to be able to tow a 5000lb 2 door JK on long trips over the mountains of Colorado.
The parts I have now:
Dana 60 front and rear axles with disc brakes, gears TBD
Atlas II transfer case
Currently have AX15 but I'm working on getting NV4500.
If I can use an XJ, I would get a GM based V8 TBD
I would also add unibody bracing.
I will be running 37" Hummer wheels and tires 8 lug.
I don't know what is better for towing, tow dolly or flat towing.
Thanks,
Rob
