alright so as you may know my front axle has gone to crap
I spent a hour or so lookin up on craigslist.com for some new axles in my area and found these. http://ventura.craigslist.org/pts/669667970.html
I went to meet up with the guy today to take a look at them, and here is the news that i got. They were for his buddy and his buddy had some new gears put in them for his project jeep and ended up going with bigger axles. He had put a tru trac locker in the rear and he wasnt quite sure on the gearing ratio. So we opened them up and found that the front is geared at 4 88s and the rear is geared at 4 10 w/ the locker. There were some things missing and some parts that needed work like the brakes for the rear, new mounts for the rear, the brake work up front and a few other things. So i pointed out the flaws of the axles and offered the guy 200.00 for both of them and a extra set of 4:10 gears.
So i guess you can say i am pretty darn stoaked on the deal that i just got. Now my question to all of you is what gear ratio do i stick with? I am currently running 3 54s on 31s and plan on going to 33s for sure and maybe 35s later on in the future but that i am not sure.
