Well here we go. I'm either a genius or a moron (don't ask my wife that question) I am taking a major leap and going with the 8.8 rear end swap. This takes things to a whole new level in the game and I'm excited to take Bob from a daily driver to a pure off road monster project. Wish me luck lol
Bob we have 2 of us in the club that I know of for sure that have done the 8.8 swap(one YJ and one TJ). We have really been happy with them and it eliminates one worry of something that can break. I know a guy that has an 8.8 for sale if you know of anyone that might be interested('98 Explorer, 3.73 gears, disc brakes).
