    Axle opinion

    http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f126/...e-set-1357879/

    What do you guys think of these, Id replace the front locker for sure. And eventually gear them deeper.

    What tire size would you run max. I think 37's, maybe 38's but that would push the 44.

    Not a bad setup but the front 44 is pass drop. so you would need to get a dana 300 or other pass drop transfer case.

    The dana 300 doesnt worry me, I have access to one for very cheap.

    IDK

    I can get the same clearance with a 9"/44 and 37's as i could with tons and 39.5's roughly

    well thats the axle setup i eventually want to run on my yj. so id say go for it. its a great deal on built axles. and i agree with the whole fact of having to ditch the front locker.

    If your looking to run 37s chrom, guss, truss, ure rear 44, chop down a HP 44 to waggy size and run chroms. Done. Pass drop waggy 44 housings have way to many issues imo. THats what I plan on doing.

    Id say just go to a JY and start fresh. Why buy a pre built axle that you know has be beat on already? Building ur own u know everything that went in, have fresh parts, u wont be paying for someones shotty work, plus the build is half the fun... I think someones got post deployment millionaires syndrome already hahahaha
