ok here's what i have rt now. i have a 96 with RE 4.5" winch bumper, rear rock bumper, sliders, and 32 bfg ko's, on a d35 limited slip and chromoly axels, d30 front with an aussie locker, both 4.56 gears.
ok, so i learned the hard way what it is like to have an auto locker on a dana 30.... run it through some ga clay/mud and have to do a rebuild. so i at least gotta redo my front diff anyway.....
now the plot thickens....... I wanna go bigger to say 35's or 36's.... i have been wanting to go long arm ever since i put the short arm on (duh). i REALLY want to end up with lock out hubs too, at the end of this deal. And on top of that, i want to also have a pretty streetable vehicle as well (if your gonna wish, wish for it all, right) not typically a crazy kind of driver but have been known to get myself in deeper than i should have...lol i wanna be able to drive to go play a few hrs away and feel like i'll probably be able to drive back home when the fun is over. maybe even head in the westerly direction and get to check out some of the promise land some day .....
soooo..... here's what i have confused myself with already. 8" LA (not decided which manufacturer and ride quality is more important than flex if i have to choose) 35's or 36's. i have found a guy that will redo a pair of waggy d44's with detroits, 4.88's for about 3500 (steering woes not included) i do have an extra d30 and chrysler 8.25 laying around that could be utilized..... and I am going to need a sye, rear driveshaft, front driveshaft??, drop pitman arm??
anyway, this is way too much for A)my puny mind to totally wrap around B) try to accomplish without some advice from people who are way smarter than me
thanks in advance.....
