What to do?? What to do?
Well i have yet another hub assembly going bad in a dana 30 vac disconnect in my 88 xj... Ill give some info on my jeep before i ask my question... I have 88 xj i6 4 inch lift on 33/12.5s dana 30 front and turdy5 in back open diffs front and rear... My question is what is my best option? I can do a 44/9 inch swap with 4.88s and lockers front and rear for about two grand (factory axle shafts and wheels included) or i can do a 8.8. Swap in rear and try to build a dana 30 that will hold together (i brake a dana 30 axle shaft almost every outing).. I really dont want to spend that kind of money so im hoping someone can help me out.... Maybe a homebrew dana 30 idea... Im getting tired of researching so im asking for input on what would you do
