NP435 and 205 swap?

CW

NAXJA Forum User
OK, in my search to gain a fixed output for less than or equivilant ( as long as I gain a stronger unit) to the cost of an sye, I realized that I have an np435 and 205 on the donor truck I got my axles from. My questions are, would you recomend the "granny" np435 swap for a dd? What gears would be ideal for 36's? What bellhousings can I use to bolt it up, I have heard anything from specific years cj to any older AMC I6 but nothing really credible. And any thing else relevent. TIA
 
i just ran the numbers, and if you used 4.10s, 36s, no OverDrive the numbers would be nearly identical as people running 5.13s, 35s, .75 OD.

If you keep it under 70 I would get 4.56, if you tend to go faster I'd go with 4.10 (or 4.30)
