its been wheeled hard
8" of lift on 35's stock steering, upgraded tierod been this way since april of 04 and the only thing ive done is ordered a new joint for my trackbar(frame side) puting this on this weekend. its been wheeled hard and driven on the street with no issues.

And then later he says he's not planning on going above his RE 4.5" kit.OP says 6.5"
I ran the stock steering at 4" and it was completely maxed out. I can't imagine that it's pretty at 6.5
well i have a little budget i get 500 a month im still in highschool so its a low budget, i wheel fairly hard, i do not plan going any bigger then my RE 4.5, and i wheel mostly mudd and some trails, i live in oregon so lots of both :]
not harsh, its wise, but i got a for 9" dana 44 rear and a d44 for front from uncle, he had an xj with no motor, any advise in installing it? all rear needs is gear oil no miles yet, should i put them on?
if it's ready to install yes, that's a very good upgrade axle strength wise.
Be prepared to need new driveshafts, and plan your budget accordingly.
Also if they were from a 1/2 ton truck or something with a v8 they probably don't hav very deep gears. Find out what gears are in them. You'll need 4.10s at a minimum to run 35's, the deeper the better.
