Looking at it, it seems i would be cutting right thru plastic linere also. Will that mess anything up?

Thanks bounty. I'm assuming its about the same with a yj?

Thanks eric

Boy that's great news! May be hope for me lol. There is a rear dana 35 axle here on craig list with 410 gears for 125. Should i pick it up for a spare?

I'm about to do this and asked for advice and tips on how to do the project well and no one had any advice: (

Thanks weylyn! I actually scored a set of 4 used mickey tompson baha claw 35s today. Not much tread left, but got them for a hundred bucks. Going to throw them on to replace my 33s in a couple days when the shop is done with my lift. Going to drive like a granny and try to set a world record of...

Thanks for links

That's what i thought

Jfrabat you have better gears than i have though to run bigger tires correct? Cause i have 4.2 5 speed

Thanks bounty hunter. These on either 2 or 4 wheel drive explorers? And where do i pic up the extra mounting hardware you mentioned?

Well on a scale of 1-10 my mechanical skill level is a zero. So will have to pay someone to do it. But I'm pretty good at finding good deals on use parts lol. So what year range explorers have the ideal axle for a 89 yj? And what exactly else do i need to pick up for the job? Thanks guys

O ok did not know that. Still a newbie in training lol

Heck i don't know lol. I thought you had to do the front axle also?

Well i have no intention to lock the rear end. I figured maybe a couple or few hundred bucks to upgrade axels with salvage parts, but from what I'm hearing it loks like a one to two grand upgrade. So replacing something after it breaks with same stock salvage parts for a couple hundred bucks...

Awesome ride!!!!!

After hearing its over a grand to upgrade to 8.8 i think ill just slap in another stock axel in it after it breaks some day

Jeeeezis 675 just for rear? Then need front one also plus labor?!!!

This looks like the best and most cost effective way to upgrade from every thing i have heard on here. My question is what is the TOTAL approx cost of doing this? Using salvage parts where possible and paying shop to do the work?

Awesome info. Thanks guys

Getting really excited now! My 4 inch suspention lift is going on this thurs. I ended up ordering rough country kit cause wife is b#t@hing about how i 'keep spending money on the jeep' so went that route to get it sooner and to catch less of an earfull lol. This one was prob over my head to...
