I've been wheeling for a while, although I do use common sense and don't try and break stuff I do use my Cherokee for wheeling. Whether I beat the **** out of them as much as you do when you wheel, I have no way of knowing.
I can break anything if I try hard enough, but for anyone with a brain the upgraded stock axles will work with 35s, if you want to go with bigger tires than 35s go the one ton chevy route, just cut the wheel base down and run 40s.

Well that makes me feel a little more confident with the 35's on stock axles. Im still on the fence but i think im leanin towards stickin with the stock axles.

Does anyone know if the pumpkin clearance of 35's on stock axles would be the same as 37's on 1-tons? I almost think it might be more because my dad has a jk with rubi 44's under it on 35" tires and i have and inch more clearance under my axles and i have 33's.

Yeah you'll be dragging diff more with 37s and tons.

I wouldn't waste time with stock turds when you have 37s in your mind. Yeah you think you'll just stay at 35s forever...that's not gonna happen lol. I've been there done that. I'd look into the HP44/9" route, good set of axles when built.

Haha probably. However like i said earlier in this thread, here in florida, there isnt a whole lot that requires massive tires. You just need good tires that dig in the dirt well. Theres only 1 place that has rocks and even those dont require anything more than a 37. And there doable with 35's and some good skids. It just takes some work. Which i enjoy. I dont wana go to big because then there wont be a challenge. Plus, everyone i wheel with has 33-35 inch tires.
