I really havnt had it on the road yet. The guy I got it from did a bad job putting the lift on and I've been trying to get it straightened out. I did take it down the road with a little snow and because of the 4.56 gears and Detroit locker in the rear end it didn't seem to do to good until I put it 4wd.

I know there's a lot of off-road clubs around. I just mentioned pgh off-road because my buddy told me about them. He's friends with a couple members and they go out on a lot of trail rides most of which are very muddy and rocky trails. This is my first jeep in 15 years my other was a show jeep a 77 cj7 but this one was built for the woods so I figure what better way can a family have fun than go out wheeling and getting muddy.

I should have it on the road this week and i'll let you know how the 4.56 do with the 35's. I don't think the Detroit locker is gonna be happy on the pavement but I'm gonna try anyways.oh you said you have the Dana 35 I have the Chrysler 8.25 but gears are gears.
