The 8.8 is probably going to be your best bet for the rear. They are pretty easy to find and most already have disk brakes on them. KennyTJ on here and Muddy Buddys did the swap in his TJ and it wasn't all that difficult. He had his setup for sale, but I'm not sure if he sold it or not. You might want to contact him on that.

You can also try to find someone that has a Rubicon and is swapping out to bigger stuff, but that's probably not going to be real easy. I'm sure there are some folks on Pirate that are selling stuff like that.

As for folks to help you out, or do it for you. There are a few around. I'm more familiar with Dayton that I am Cincy, but I'm sure someone down there can give you a hand. Bottom line, if you're going to spend the time and money to upgrade, there's no sense in polishing the turds that are the stock axles.
