I have a 77 CJ-5 with a 304/T-18/D20 with Dana 30 front and AMC20 rear. I know, I know. . . .do it yourself. . . but I don't have the time or tools right now to do it myself, and I only have this month off for the next year and some change until I am out of the Marine Corps, so I want to get it DONE. I was thinking of using a shop I went to a couple years back somewhere in Pleasanton, CA I think it was "Deetz off road" or something like that. I was impressed with thier facilities and the rigs they had parked outside. Anyway, I want it done right. Oh yeah, I was planning on bumping up to 35's and gearing down to 4.88s with Deroits at the same time. The only worry I have is the rear driveshaft. If you have any opinions on a better shop or any input at all I am all ears. Thanks. Semper Fi.

As far as the driveshaft goes ... no else does better than JESS @ HIGHANGLE (www.highangledriveline.com) !!!
I have a FULL SIZE Cherokee with 4" bodylift, SOA on D60 & 14bolt on 37"x12.5"x16.5 MTs. I have not one worry about running Jess' stuff!! Use the SEARCH with "Jess" and "High Angle" as the search criteria for all of the incredible testimonials that were unsolicited about how bada$$ Jess is.
thats my .02! :beer:

Try Arabia's Automotive in Los Gatos. Jeff is a good guy and all they do is jeeps. Prices are good too!
Check out there web site too.
