Unless you are running large tires. I would not worry about having a 27spline instead of a 29 spline.
LSD's are made for both. Eaton makes a good lsd. Or you could go with an auto locker
I run a welded rear end and its my daily. Just wears the tires more. And probably will suck come winter. LOL

Axle tunes were different right as well? I figure that may get me the closest to figuring it out. May have a buddy come over later and help me out on it.

Just got the axle apart. Got a great deal! Opened it to find a LSD looking back at me! Now I need to find the bearing tool for the axle or have one made up

It would be sweet to get a paycheck to cruise the trails.I'd like the idea of not paying to fix a rig I get to beat on in the woods to.lol

I've seen it a bunch of times.I've seent it at the look out,the ville and last time was when it was escorting an ambulance out of freezone to a waiting life flight.Saline township operates both the hummer and the life flight.
Ooopsy, never mind I forgot I broke one. They still work fine, but one is about a half inch shorter.
Personally I would buy the coil spacers. 3in springs are way over rated. Also they make your jeep ride like a truck. I had coil spacers and never had a problem, great ride. Put these 3" coil springs on an busted one.
I will give them to you if you want them. Up to you.
