Scored a 2" receiver from the local scrap yard with a harness for $50. About to put it on.

However there are c-clip and non-c-clip Dana 35s, I see how that can be confused. but Dana 35s are the rear axle only! (unless you have an 8.25 or the sought after XJ Dana44)

I looked at it, she was lonely since I have a company truck now. so I went over and rubbed her hood for a few minutes, reassuring her I had not forgotten and we are going for a ride in the morning!

Well nothing to it but for it. I finished the wife's front long arms on her wrangler so now it can be parked out side and mine can move into the garage for the much needed axle swap.

You tap into pin A12 in your ecu , run that to a switch with a ground and your done. Flip it on and it bumps your rpms up to 1k
