Hey Bill,
Thanks for the advice, I'm planning on a super 35 kit for the rear, I
know it's not the ideal choice, but I got a great deal on one.
I'm sure at some point I'll need to cough up some real dollars and
put a 44 in the front and rear. I'm building the rig as I go along and
upgrading in small steps as "spare" cash comes available.
Thanks again to everyone for your knowlege and advice!
Tom

I'm already running 35's on the jeep and have been for close to a
year. The gearing is way to high but with a 4.2l w/fuel inj. and
headers, it has enough power to fake it until I put the new gears in.
I guess I should shop around for a better deal on the carrier since
several of you guys think $200 is way too much.
