Would be cheaper to do a C8.25 29-spl, even with a ZJ disc conversion than a 8.8. There is no welding/fab work involved in a C8.25 swap even with a disc swap

a good test for a dana 35, is take the jeep infront of your house.

apply the brakes as hard as you can, push the gas down til it trys to push thru the brakes, at that very second, release the brakes completely and floor it.

If the dana 35 can do that a few times without breaking, you might be okay, but if you bust an axle and lose a wheel the first time you do this, you'll understand why it sucks.

Just because people wheel with a 35, dosen't make it good or a smart idea, you can eat spaghetti with a spoon, dosen't make it a good idea.
