Okay, I did some research, and it looks like I have a Chryco 8.25 Rear 27 spline. Is this correct? and can anyone possibly give me some information about this axle, is it better/worse than the d35, and are there any shortfalls compared to the 29 spline? -And also is this the stock axle that I should have, or did the PO do a swap?

NEW TIRES AND RIMS!
(32x11.50xr15 KM2, Cragar Soft 8 w/ 4"BS)

So everything went basically as planned, only thing i'm missing as you can see is the center caps, which I'm getting shipped in about 2 weeks...
Other than that everything's great, rides smoother than my last set, and looks great of course. No rubbing on turns, slight on flex of course, fenders are in the works to be trimmed to help this though. Next step is also mounting one of my old tires on the rack as a spare which will hopefully be done soon as well! Feedback is great so please give me some! Also it would be cool if someone could answer my axle question a page back as well. Also, the pictures don't really do it justice in my mind, especially since its at night, more later.

A little bit more today, I started trimming some of my front flare to get a feel for it, but I just realized I don't have any pictures of it so more on that later. Next up, I mounted my old tire up as a spare on my rack, and here's some daylight pictures of the jeep with the new tires, since I was so excited last night and the pictures didn't turn out that great haha.

Two random things that I felt like should be put in here.

-This is my favorite part of the 92 model. (Coolest 4x4 insignia ever)
And just because I put everything else in here about the Jeep I felt that i should mention that I cut off the end of the exhaust because i didn't like the way it looked curving down haha.

Quick question: does anybody have any idea what this setup is and is for? It's been there since I bought it, and I think it's from the first owner doing (previous previous owner).
There's a weird center console thing with what looks like a camera on it. (And it has some kind of micro chip connected up on the inside)
Then there's this little speaker box on the driver side.
And there's a little antenna on the outside.
Here's the antenna box on the inside, (i use it to hang hats on)
If anybody has any idea what all this is for please let me know haha. Thanks.

hmm, the hands free phone makes sense, does that mean that i already have keyless entry hooked up or something and i just need a remote? or what, or is that just to unlock the car like a key fob or something?

It may have been functional on yours originally but I don't find it to hard to tern a key

Alright, i've been at the lake a lot this summer, and its been ridiculously hot, so i haven't accomplished much. But from driving back and forth from the lake I got a quick 50 "road" miles on the jeep. So I went and messed around the other day, so here are some lake pictures and the wheelin with new tires. (sorry no action shots yet)

Lake Stuff.
<also my avatar

Now back home. (about to head out)


So basically that's all i've been up to so far.... sorry if this build is too "pic intensive" because i take a good bit of pictures, and just like to throw em up on here.

Yep, that little dome thing is a remote entry receiver, i thought for the longest time what the hell is that, i thought it was a camera.... you could buy a remote off ebay for 10 or so dollars and have your dealership or locksmith reprogram it to work for you.
