Just found this, hell of a deal. Offer him a little bit of money to hold them, but this is a deal if you swap them yourself.

Will - sweet find!!

I just e-mailed them. I'm running 3.07, told them that, and am hoping they're ok with that. I'm planning on upgrading but if I can get a better gear ratio AND lockers in the mean time for free?! Why not. We'll see what they say.

We'll the guy wants to trade with me I think. I'm just can't convince myself to trade my 30/44 combo with 3.73's for a 35... Even though there is a $900 locker in it lol. What does the ppl of GATR think?

Keep the 30/44

3.07s are awful.  Great if he is willing to trade as it is a great deal for you.  4.56s will be a huge change.

Ben wheeled a 30/35 combo for many years.  I would swap a standard 44 for a built 35 to get the upgrade to gears and the front and rear arb's.

If and only if I had an idea of max 33s and finesse wheeling style.  The lockers and gears will make a huge difference.

You can do this swap in a day in a drive way side by side.

This. You would be trading down.


But if Jim was able to get it that would be a sweet deal for him, but he would have to really slow down his wheeling style as the 35 does not like to take beatings all that well

I figured you could swap them, sell them, and have cash to build a new axle. You can sell that built 35, someone is gonna want it.

Yea I could do the swap myself but he wants a shop to do it so that's another $350 ish I'd have to pay someone to do something I can do. I think ill stick with the combo I have...

Anyway you can offer him like $100 to do the swap yourself?

The idea was to do it myself. I haven't heard back from him. Also, I was going to sell the built combo as cash for upgrading at least the rear but probably the front too. We'll see if he gets back to me.

I hate jack ass CL ads like that.  No picture but has lots of body damage and they say " no time for 20 questions".

If you're trying to sell a vehicle and say "Too many things to list", I hate you.

Sounds like a salvage jeep/ parts only.

The problem is that they are almost all crappy parts (LP D30, D35, 2.5L, NP231 without SYE)!  4.10 gears though, for those who want to stick with a D35.  Maybe a salvageable top?  I'd love to have a set of full or half doors for cheap (I'd turn full doors into half doors).

If someone grabs it and you want to sell the doors, send me pics and a price. :)
