More Lift?

[PapaGeno21]

I think 34's will be enough for what I do. Plus 35's on 4:56's will start to get sluggish and I cant run 4:88's in a Chrysler 8.25...

Eventually some time next year I will get a locker and a D44...

Do you have an Auto or Manual tranny?

4.56s, 35s and a Auto is perfect. Bob ran his XJ this way and loved everything about it. Most guys on here will say the same.

With a manual, 4.88 might be necessary, but it's not that huge of a difference between the 4.56 and 4.88

 

[PapaGeno21]

I have an Auto.. I am still debating on 35's or not.

Would the Chrysler 8.25 be able to be locked with 35's?

 

[Trailbst]

Yeah. Tires don't affect whether you can lock it or not.

I was just gonna post about a new locker for the 8.25

Aussie lockers has them in development right now.

BTW, I'm not trying to push you to 35s.

There are just lots of options out there. Some guys want 6 or 8" of lift. I, personally, like mine with 4.5" of lift and the cut fenders and flares. If you want to see it up close, come take a look.

I honestly think if I am at 5.5" I will be great for 34's.

To each their own! I won't ever attempt to force anyone to do what I've done. If you want to see it in person, just let me know.
