Full width axles and chevy drive train for my 89 xj
 

Well after blowing the dana 35 and my 4.0 is about to give out after 325,000 miles i figured its time for a new life for the old booger. Just so happend i had a full chevy drive train sittin around that i needed to do somthin with and figured why not throw it all in the xj. I know its gona be a big project but should be worth it in the end. So heres my list for this build

Motor- early 80s Chevy small block 350
Transmission- Turbo 350
Transfer case- its a gm but not sure the numbers right off
Front axle- full width gm full time 4x4 dana 44 will eventualy put lock in/out hubs
Rear axle-Gm 12 bolt
Front suspension- gona do waggy leafs im sure ill catch some crap over that but it will be cheaper and a little easery for my build
Rear suspension is currently 6.5 rustys leafs but will add a 2 inch shackle and be round 8.5 inch
Wheels and tires - humvee 16.5 2 peice bead locks with 37 inch tires
Body- Planning on choping and dove tailing rear and maybe narrow the front a little

and so far thats the plan allready have all the parts just gota get it all put together im sure somone will have some negative stuff to say about the build but oh well i wheel on a budget and already have everything to do it with and the fabricating skills to make what i dont have so why not
will try to keep updates and pics coming thanks for looking

oh yea and if anyone is needing any parts keep checkin on my progress cus once i start tearing down ill have alot of parts for sale

well i was gona post some picks of the axles and all bein tore down in the garage but the only pitchure i could get to load was the motor and transmission ill get the rest of the pics up whenever my computer desides to work
