[QUOTE="billulsund, post: 1432507, member: 19122"] Another thing to consider when looking for a cherokee is what Dana 30 you have up front. Avoid the ones with the vac disconnect if you can, although they can be converted to take a 1 piece shaft. There are also versions with stronger shafts (I think it is the ones with ABS). There are problems with the Bendix ABS found in the Renix Cherokees (87-90) and it can fail so I would reccomend replacing it immediately if you have it. As said before the Dana 35 is a very weak rear axle and I would never reccomend wheeling one on larger than 32" tires. Some cherokees did come stock with a Dana 44 rear so if you check around the junkyards you should be able to find a bolt in 44 for the rear. To put a Dana 44 up front would require a bit of fabrication, but a Dana 30 can handle up to 35" tires. Myself and several other Cherokee drivers I know have been sucessfully wheeling a Dana 30 with 35" tires with no problems. [/QUOTE]
