I am running Spartan lockers front and rear on my XJ. I did find when I put locker in the front I did not care for the way it drove around town. I put manual hubs on the front and think it drive better than ever around town now. I am doing a 99 Durango build next and think I will put a Grizzly...

Interested as well.

I think terra flex offers a complete rear disc brake kits for the 8.25 axle. Has proportion valve included. Might as well upgrade the axle shafts when you do it.

Apply the 3m tape to the emblem and trim it with a good razor knife first. Then use the Isopropyl alchohol and stick it to the surface. Any good auto body supply store will have it or most auto parts stores.

Looking around at some top mount tents for overlanding. Smittybuilt makes some around $1000 and price goes up from there. Anyone had experience with top tents?
