Thanks for the posts, but why can't anyone post pics w/ their stats. Pics are GOOD.
to all daily drivers running 35's, what's your axles/gears/lift?

keep in mind the rear is untrimmed this was a test run to see where it would rub and how much to trim/bumpstop, I still have a good amount of flex left in the front

95 xj on 35x16 boggers
4.5 inch rustys spring pack/coils
long arm three link
white steelies (8 lug)
full float dana 60 rear
dana 44 front.. soon to be 60
4.10s currently
swaped in ax-15
dana 300 t case
I have converted the rear to 13 inch disks, prior to the 60, the 8.25 and drums were really lacking in the stoping dept. I would defenetly suggest disks on your rig with the 35s.

If the bronco has a v6 and is 4wd....it might have a drum brake 8.8 but it is too narrow for a XJ.
4.0, 133,000 miles on it,
aw-4, same mileage
d30, 4.56's
8.25, 4.56's
cone style intake
stock head
stock intake manifold
60mm tb
thorly header
stock cat
flowmaster muffler
custom 2.25" exhaust
35x12.50's
15x8" rims
3.75" bs
full sized spare on tire carrier
full traction 6" long arm suspension
Bilstein 5150's front, 5125's rear, suggested valving from the web site.
I get about 12-14.5mpg no matter what I do, but I do most of my driving on the highway....about 80 miles a day doing 70-80mph the entire time. I've tried doing 65mph, but I get worse mileage than I do at 70 or 75mph. I highly reccomend long arms if you are going tall and plan on DD'ing it. I can handle everything on the highway much better than other Jeeps I drive with. Hope this helps.
