I'm beginning to reconsider this entire deal, since my plans have slightly changed. I have decided to keep my current jeep as is. It's pretty capable, and it can get me through some tough stuff, but all in all, it's my daily driver. I don't want to be worried about having to drive it to work after snapping something pretty important, or even rolling it. I've decided, along with pops, that it'd be best to buy another cherokee in the future, and just drop all my money on that and build a trailer queen. The axles, suspension, new motor, tcase, cage, the works pretty much. Now, this will be years from now, and I have begun to reconsider my options. It turns out the d44 that comes matching with that eaton is closed knuckle, and isn't really recommended over 37's, which I plan to go over.
All around, I want to go with bigger axles. I could possibly use that Eaton by itself, and something else up front, but would another combination be better for say, 39's or 40's?
I was thinking of using dana 60's front and rear, but what is a donor vehicle that I can try looking for to get these axles? I know that the parts for these axles will be costly, but for the assurance, I think I can deal with it. I want to start researching more and more about what I need for this sort of setup, so whatever advice yall have would be much appreciated.
