mrveedub96 10-29-2007, 04:53 PM hy guys i just got a 91 xj n im gunna put a 6.5" lift in the next week or so n i wanna put a spool in the rear for the mean time but im not sure if its gunna b ok for a daily driver around turns w/ the rear locked i wanna no how bad will it push threw the turns :D ralphXJ 10-29-2007, 05:58 PM I dont even notice the rear spool in mine. Other then the tires making noise when I'm aired down (its normal to drive on the street with 5psi right?). I had a lockright in my old axles, and it was VERY noticable when it locked and unlock. With a spool, you dont have to do deal with it locking and unlocking. Its always locked, and you hardly notice it! Go for it, you'll be glad you did! mrveedub96 10-29-2007, 06:50 PM rite on 88burban 10-29-2007, 07:17 PM X2 I love mine, the only issue is with tire wear, but rotate often, and you will be ok. and i wouldnt recommend a spool in the front... i used to say go for it, but after blowing 3 d44 shafts with only 35s i feel safe saying that the spool was the cause. 1996cc 10-29-2007, 08:08 PM Mine's welded. Not bad, but I just drive to and from trails, no DDing.

D44s are bomb proof on 38s, it has to be the spool. 88burban 10-29-2007, 09:12 PM D44s are bomb proof on 38s, it has to be the spool. oh, my bad... did I say 38s, because I would swear I said 35s....:shaking: HardcorewannabeXJ 10-29-2007, 09:56 PM Is anyone else thinking 6.5" of lift + 35" (probably) tires + D35 + spool = Kaboom????? It'd probably last awhile since it doesn't have any hard loading and unloading like a lunchbox would, but come on :rolleyes: Plus why spend money on a spool, lincoln lock that fawker. mrveedub96 10-30-2007, 10:16 AM haha thanks guys i no wat im buying this weekend vetteboy79 10-30-2007, 11:09 AM i used to say go for it, but after blowing 3 d44 shafts with only 35s i feel safe saying that the spool was the cause.

I was blowing up those u-joints and shafts on a regular basis locked with 33's, stock motor/trans/t-case. haha thanks guys i no wat im buying this weekend Hooked on phonics? | |
