ok i have a 99 xj and a set of tons, 60 & 70. the front is a low pinion out of both are out of a 90's model dodge. im going to have the chunk moved to the drivers side. how do yall think i'll be with the low pinion? when we swap the sides im going to have the knuckles turned to line up my pinion a lil better. i currently have a rubicon express 5.5" short arm lift with drop brackets on the front and plan on keeping it this way for a while till i get the money to change it up a tad. it worked good before so i figured it should with the tons also i guess. i run 34x12.50's now with trimmed fenders so do yall think i could get 37's on it? i was unsure how much more the bigger axles will set it up since the tubes and stuff are bigger. i want to try and get by with my same lift and just put the axles under it and run 37's but wanted to see pics and get everybodys opinions on it. what else do i need to look into before this project gets started? i was also thinkin either a 5;38 or the next which i think is 5;86 for my gears on a 37"-38" tire and it will be drivin daily 10-15 miles each trip. im just trying to get this in order before i get into a mess. i have the axles and thats all so far. i plan on a detriot rear and a lock right or ox locker in the front. how hard would it be to steer with a lock right and regular power steering? i had another jeep with 33's and a lock right in the front and it was easy to steer but though these big boys under there and 37"-38" tire may be a different story and i would get the ox no doubt but that is a pretty big price difference. please help and tell me what all i need to look into, give ideas and post some pics!
