Really? An aw4 do those even go bad? Mine has like 350k on it. lol

 

serious?

ever driven/wheeled a properly geared rig?

 

This is the stance I like.maybe a tad lower. Rustys 9" coil and 35.

 

Ya, ive got 4.56 in the YJ and dont like it.

 

Yes, they go bad. Would you like the one out of my Jeep with 180k on it? It doesn't have second gear anymore.

 

Ya think that truck has 3.55s in it?


9" coils from the same company that used to offer an 8" short arm lift...

You lift it as high as you want. I'm just sayin that 3.55s and 35's is horrible.

 

Maybe I should re-phrase, I dont mind the 3.55 with the 33" tire, with the 35 it may be different. I put the 4.56 in my YJ. Ford 9" and d 44 along with a healthy Sbc and wish I had the 4.10 back. It just tacks up too quick on me, ok offroad but on the street it breaks the tires loose on 1-2 and 2-3. Ive ran 4.10 in all my jeeps but that one.

 

I promise 4.56 and 35's won't tach up too fast in a Comanche.

Either way, it's never going to be a race car. The least it could do is get out of it's on way.

 

8" short arm. Lol. I bet my tractor rides better. I appreciate your guys input. In the end I need a dd/ weekend warrior that wont break. This was my dd, and the YJ the toy. But the YJ has to go and now the MJ needs to pull double duty. So it needs to be capable without braking the bank. I think ill pick up that 44 from my buddy. It just sucks it has no posi and 3.55.

 

i put a ton of miles on 5.38's with 35's

would cruise at 75 mph for 32 hours at a time (true story) and got 15 mpg doing so

 

To me a capable daily driver would not be lifted 9 and a half inches with 35s on stock gears. There's no way I could drive that every day.

A capable daily driver (To me) would be lifted 4" w/ RK 3-link, 33" tires, selectable lockers f/r, 4.56 gears, some good diff covers and armor.

My current DD is lifted 3", 31's and 4:10s. My trail rig is in my sig line. If I didn't have the trail rig the DD would be built like I described above.

 

Really, thats sweet. I barely get that now.

 

I drove a YJ for like 4 years with 39.5's on it daily. But I dont want to toast my tranny.

 

You would have been fine with the 410 in the yj bceause the sbc has enough torque and power to turn the tires. The little straight 6 needs some help, guys generally run 456 or 488 gears with 35's with the 4.0L

Because of the 3.55 gears

 

Would you be willing to make a couple more shackle tabs? I'd pay ya!
