d30 hp vs hp?
Which would be a better choice:
1991 d30 hp with this http://compare.ebay.com/like/3304345...=sbar&_lwgsi=y
or
1994 d30 hp?
Not worried about gearing.

Not sure if the 1994 still uses the two piece axle, but the extra lever isn't that big of a deal IMO.
I've considered converting to that cable system on my 87.

I personally would go for a D30 that isn't a disconnect style axle. Try finding one like that instead because it is a single shaft on the passenger side plus it's still a high pinion.

I would think that with extra parts there is more to break. I've never torched mine or.had any issues. But I don't wheel all that hard.

I'm not too familiar with these two-piece axles, if I were to weld the front dif, could I disengage the cable would I still get power to one wheel?

go with the two piece 94 d30. Less headache with the disconnect, and bigger/stronger u-joints.
