also use this as a DD so I have crazy laws to deal with, as far as how much the tires can stick out past the fenders!!

Yeah, I hear you about the tire stickout thing. That's our biggest problem keeping ours inspected and street legal here in PA. Don't know where you call home, but the competition cut on your rear fenders might be a bigger problem than tire stickout as far as street legal. They'd probably want you to have mudflaps or something.

Nice jeep! I was in Moab several years ago when Pit-Bull tires where just a rumor and climbed Moab rim with a guy from our local area testing a set. They worked great on the rocks and reminded me of lucky charms cereal with purple horse shoes and blue diamonds on the tread Thank you for your service over there and try to stay cool!


As far as waggy axles go if it was me I would be looking for a dually dana 60 or 70 (64" wide) and a dana 44 from a waggy or a 60 from a dodge (Dodge dana 60's arent as wide). Dana 44's arent a whole hell of alot of an upgrade but if you ask Bob he cant seem to get enought borrowed time on his =D>

I'll upgrade that rear 44 when she breaks. Until then, I'll continue to abuse it with my 37s (and carry a spare set of shafts ).

HA!!!
Trying to get the heck outta this hot humid place!!!!! Not sure when the thermometer reads 95 if it's the temp or the humidity!!!!

Actually, finishing off a 6 month install on a Navy Crusier. I need to get home, wife's sick - she caught Lyme disease last week (flip-flops in a heavily wooded yard), the kids are busy working, my yard is a shambles and my Jeep still isn't ready to run on it's own power yet

Thanks Jim,
She goes in for an MRI and ultra sound tomorrow (8/2) to see if she has liver and gall bladder damage. For such a small pest, this fawker bit her good. I've been doing some research ... more on Lyme Disease: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyme_disease

Well I just hope they caught it fast enough. I've been bitten by ticks before but not a Deer tick & I really never read up on it before, I've heard of the symptoms but man, it could be bad. I cut & pasted some info off the site U posted & just from one little bite and this could happen. Let us know Pat.

"A percentage of patients with Lyme disease have symptoms that last months to years after treatment with antibiotics. These symptoms can include muscle and joint pains, arthritis, stiff neck, cognitive defects, neurological complaints or fatigue".

P.S. Sorry, we didn't mean to hi-jack the thread.
