I need a rear axle that has 4.88 gears, good brakes, an affordable locker, and has (or can be modified to have) 5 on 4.5".
It won't see hard offroading, and will end up under a very light rig- an 86 xj, 2 door, 2.5 liter, with the back chopped off. It will be used for getting to trailheads and leaving for several days at a time.
The d30 front from my 95 xj will go up front, but the 8.25 can't be regeared to 4.88.
This is on a tight budget, and it's going on a cheap rig.
So far, a Toyota with the elocker is my best idea, if I can find one cheap enough, and if the bolt pattern can be changed (spacer/adapters or redrilled?). WMS width won't have to be perfect for this rig.
TIA
