Yeah I'm going to be keeping a eye out for a 60 front, 14ff rear and probably 38's in a few years. Take my time and try to find a good deal on some of the parts when I can

that sucks, i have 35"s right now til the new tires get here. i know its not the strongest axle but think it'll hold for what i use it for. it'll be for work/hunting/ and play. like i said as i come across a good deal ill grab it if money is available and take my time freshening it up and then swap it in.
 pic of how it'll sit once the shackle flip is installed  205 tore apart and rebuilt  dana 44 partially assembled - easier to move around. best upgrade, madmfg axle shaft seals. i hate mud getting inside and getting into the inner seals  was just a few pics i had |
