Got a New Whip ... Jeep cherokee
Its a 1991 Cherokee laredo. has 200xxx miles and has a slight lift with 31" BFG's. The rear end is stock and im pretty sure could use a new pinion/gear set of about 4.10
The sucky thing that it gets horrible MPG's but then again i dont drive it everyday. Set me back a cool 1,200.
I plan on getting some lockers and ring/pinion for the rear and maybe a good tune up. other than that, im gonna rock her till the wheels fall off.

so your telling me i need to find a dana44?

You will be hard pressed to find an XJ 44 anymore for a reasonable price. Just get a Chrylser 8.25 out of a 97 and up and it will be 29 spline. Or get a Ford 8.8 out of a 96-00 Explorer. It will be disc and its 31 spline with tons of aftermarket support. You will need to weld on some perches though. I just did one on my buddies XJ. It wasn't hard to do.
