can i run either of these tires with a chrysler 8.25 rear. and a stock dana front. i have 3.55 gears and a 4 1/2 inch lift. would this cause problems for me? any input would help. i have a really good deal on a set but idk what the cons are

 

you can. But your gonna break some shafts if you wheel it hard. You should get some dana 44's. For a dd you'd be ok

 

snapped shafts bent dana 30 housing no power. though get them then sell them for 33s or something like that.

 

My DD has 36s and the same set up. On the road it has nothing but dose get 17MPG I drive mostly highway. Off road it don't have much for power 4L is fine for mud and mild trails. But I don't recommend it. You have to have the bigger U-joints in the front and have to keep and open diff with a light foot or you will brake alot!!! My newer heaver spline 8.25 (97+) I don't worry about and would lock. From all the research I have done its just as strong as a D44

 

thanks for the info guys. i think i might skip out on these ones til im ready to handle them.

and i cant buy and sell them cause theyre from a buddy, wouldnt be right

 

Well that putts you above most of the locals around by me. Well one particularity.
