yeah so after researching and taking in yalls advice im def going for the 8.25 with 4.56 gears. but thats a good bit away. I got save up for the tires (college student) and my 31s got plenty of tread left. thanks guys. I just got through cutting my front fenders today. I cant wait till I get a new welder so I can cut my rears cuz Im not doing cut and fold. Im doing cut and weld lol Ive seen it done
One more question I know the D35 is too weak to handle 33s but what about my D30 in the front? do I need to get a D60?

The D30 is plenty strong.
I wouldnt do a 60 unless I was running at least like 38's or something. Totally not necessary.

You'd be real hard pressed to find a 4cyl with a d44 because I dont think they ever made one.
Your best bet is get a 4cyl with an 8.25 or find a 6cyl with a 44 and regear it.
