that's no Bueno... Looks like you'll be needing at least new spider gears, might as well go with a locker...

You need better tires first. I went everywhere the guys with 33's and 5-6" lifts went on 31x10.50's. Great tires make a BIG difference. ATs suck in mud and I live down in the Everglades where its nothing but different mud, muck and marl (clay, mud and shell mixed, wayyy worse/stickier than mud)
