so your saying it would be easier to find an diff with 4.10's rather than just changing out the ring and pinion?

I got a D35 in the rear with 4.10 but i have it out right now to do the SOA so I'm trying to find a 44 or a 8.8 to swap in. and a D30 up front which i bealive has 3.07 gears, not to sure but the previous owner just put a newer D35 in the rear that had the 4.10 in it with all new bearings and everything. So i need to switch the front gears to match the rear. 4x4 doesnt work because of the different gear ratios. anyone know where i can pick up a cheap 44 or 8.8 with 4.10s or lower?

My fenders are starting to rust around the flares especially in the rear so alittle trimming would help me get rid of some of the rust. I was told by someone else to run a 10 in wide wheel and not an 8. so which is gonna be better for 12.5 wide tires and if i do decide to go with 35's? I was looking at either the soft 8 or the D-window for wheels and i think they have 4 in for backspacing.

I don't have any tires yet so i can't trade you. I wanted to get all this stuff figured out before i bought my tires and wheels.

How much trimming is needed with 34s or 35s? i figure that i will need to trip part of the fender flares and some plastic but will i need to cut in to the metal??

Ok thanks. i forgot to mention i do have longer shocks too. I rebuilt my AX-15 and getting ready to put everything back in and if it was a necessity i would do the sye it while i had the transfer case out but i guess ill try it how it is and see how it works. and will I be able to clear 35x12.5in tires?

I am new on this site. I have a 91 comanche. I am puting a 6.5 in lift on with SOA in the rear. My question is do i need to use a slip yoke eliminator kit or can i just get the right angle when doing the SOA and get a longer driveshaft? also what other modifications need to be made with this big of a lift? do i need to use a drop pitman arm. I have upper and lower control arms, adjustable track bar, brake lines, and 6.5 coils.
