Default project Evil Dead

Bought last year for 300$ 1995 zj limited with a blown engine. Interior is nice and outside is clean so for 300$ why not. I have done everything myself so it's been a process.
1 - pulled tranny and motor to replace motor
2 - started a winch bumper build
3 - bought new tires and rims

Future plans build cowl hood
-add maybe 4.5 inch lift
-build armor and back bumper
-rock sliders
-half doors with quick pins
And some interior mods

I have a 8.8 rear axle in my garage...what are your guys thoughts on a swap...I'll probably only run 33's but...plans change lol. I have the Dana 35 in it now. But if I do a lift maybe I'll slap that 8.8 under there???
