    Questions about running 37s on a Dana 30 front axle

    Yeah. The tires I'm looking at are the Cooper discoverer at3 xlt. Cooper site says they measure right around 36.5. I honestly would expect about 36 when I get them mounted. But the weight is 68. Plus, since they are an at they may not grab as hard when they do bite and have less chance of...

    Questions about running 37s on a Dana 30 front axle

    Correct me if I'm wrong but the weight of each tire that I will be going to is equal in weight to most and less than some 35's. This would effectively help the axles since weight is less right?

    Questions about running 37s on a Dana 30 front axle

    Maybe that's something I learned with the cj7 and the amc20 that gets such bad rap. I drive smart and refuse to tear up what I drive. I've never even had a winch on that one. Guess time will tell on the Dana 30.

    Questions about running 37s on a Dana 30 front axle

    Definitely won't be Wheeling it that hard. Like I said, I want to explore back roads and two tracks, although I know sometimes they can get pretty sketchy. I like the thought of covering miles every hour and not feet every hour. Mostly I go hunting and fishing and that doesn't take a crawler...

    Talk me out of 4.88 re-gear

    That's the thing though. The upgrade is literally years away. I do want to off road a bit, not rock crawl but two tracks and gravel roads. I don't abuse my rides. My cj is still on stock AMC 20 with two piece axle shafts and 33's. Dana 30 still enough for 35's and my style of driving? I...

    4.56 and 35's it will be. Should I still sleeve and gusset the inner C's for strength on the Dana 30 til I can upgrade?

    That chart does say overdrive and only says 70 mph after looking closer at it. I'll never drive much over 70 anyway.

    It would be great if I could find a 44 someone wanted to part with. Also, I see some 35's that weigh more than my 37's. Guess it comes down more to weight than size?

    Talk me out of 4.88 re-gear

    Found a chart that says rpm is 2445 with 35's and 4.56 gears. If I stay on 37's the same would be true with 4.88. Any fears I should have for a daily driver weekend warrior if I stay on 37's with 4.88 gears and a Dana 30 up front? Thinking I'll sleeve it and weld gussets on inner C's for...

    Talk me out of 4.88 re-gear

    So I am currently on 3.21. It's really not terrible to be honest. Slow but I'm getting 16 mpg in town. Hills suck of course but the jeep handles it surprisingly well

    Talk me out of 4.88 re-gear

    I will be getting the original fenders and painting to match. Agreed it would be too much for 35's. I love the obnoxious color. Lol. So should I look at 4.56? Sounds like even 4.10 is enough
