Fullwidth 9"/D44. 5.13's, 35's. Doesnt do as bad as you'd think with the automatic, but if I were driving it on the road any distance I'd go with 4.88's or a bigger tire. Its a pretty good combo for wheelin though.
why was it going to cost so much to swap the front 44? How were you planning on setting it up? The only thing it cost me was the material to make my steering components. I just used the stock radius arms for the time being and put johnny joints on the frame end of the arms. A DD might need a little more fine tuning though.
