i want a set of very heavy duty battery cables 1/0 welding cable or better. i was going to order from jon kelly 5-90 but i got an automated messaging from him and im worried i might not be able to get them by the fourth of july. im leaving for a trip. any one have any other ideas or recommendations?

but if the dana 35 isnt that bad. im wondering about just saving a few bucks and just going with the locker in it. again im only running 31 possibly 33 at some point. but im pretty hard on the gas some times....

1500 for the ready to go 8.8 was with the abr air locker and disk brakes. i was leaning toward the 8.8 because it comes to about the same price with locker as a d44 in my area and that would not be bolt on. the abr locker for the 8.8 is 200 cheaper than the dana 44 for some reason

im doing a rear locker becuase im going to be driving on snow and dont want a locked rear all the time in 4x4

yea i was thinking about that or a ford 8.8 i dont have a welder or the facility to fabricate anything. so i would have to be bolt on or close to it. but my local jy wants 275 for a used axel which seems high considering for 645 i can have a ford 8.8 and the abr air locker is 200 cheaper for...

alright anything i should look for in the thousand miles or so ?

This makes me really happy i went with OME

I'm pretty angry about this so allow me to get on my soap box for a min. :soapbox: My jeep is my baby and when anything breaks i like to make sure i can get the best parts possible to fix it. So when the weather stripping was falling apart i decided to order a whole new complete set just to...

did any one ever come up with an answer ? i ordered mine from team Cherokee they sent me the wrong ones told me to ship them back i did and never sent me replacements or a refund :smsoap:

as my jeep ages, its now 25 years old i seem to be having a harder and harder time finding good parts to replace things (mostly rubber). a lot of the stuff i get for lack of a better word is shit or i get a vendor who charges me a bunch of money and does ship out parts. any ideas where to get...
