FNG 10-08-2001, 02:13 PM 5.38's, Along with the D44's front and rear. I'd have said D60's, but you likely won't break the D44's with 4 angry squirrel's under the hood anyway <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0"> WillyPete 10-08-2001, 02:26 PM Originally posted by FNG: <STRONG>5.38's, Along with the D44's front and rear.

Save your money for an axle swap and put the gears in that. If you must, I'd go 4.88. Eventually your squirrels will die and you will want to get a V8 and you can't run a V8 with a 35C IMO...I guess you can, but you should not be here then. desertPOS 10-09-2001, 11:29 AM Originally posted by WillyPete: <STRONG>go to JU... jesus jumpin christ... what gears should i get? how much lift? will this tire fit with no lift? will my wrangler run without the carpet inside? should i get ketchup and mustard on my hot dog?

All hail WillyPete, he has 80 posts. Instead of flamin, just explain what you think. Oh, and when you say 'fawkin newbs', your saying fuck yourself because you are still a 'newb' yourself.

Locked in the rear, I wheeled the crap out of that thing and never broke and drive train parts.
