Well !!! Jeep is part of Chrysler and every now and then the Chrysler engineers get one through on the Jeep line and it takes a little time for the consumer to locate it . the Alum 44 was one of those . Wheel it hard and the rear of your jeep will always be smiling if you know what I mean .


-Find an 8.8 from a 96+ explorer , normally around $250.00
-order TJ bucket kit from somewhere likewww.ruffstuffspecialties around $130

So you end up with a very strong axle for under 5 bills .... disk brakes and all!
