I’ve been purchasing parts for my 97 Jeep Wrangler 4.0 3-speed auto for a while now. I’m getting close to pulling the trigger on the install.
I pulled the build sheet and it states I have 3.07 gears and 32RH transmission Dana 35 rear.
HERES THE GOAL!
—-I want to run 35“ mud terrain tires because I just love the look. I want to have moderate off-road capability. No rock climbing. And, I‘d like to have good acceleration.
Here’s what I’ve purchased so far:
——3.5” Rubicon Express Short Arm Lift Kit with lower and upper adjustable control arms
——1” motor mount lift for the 1.25” body lift I plan to purchase
——Rancho RS9000XL series adjustable shocks with the Rancho 5000 Steering stabilizer
Heres what I’m considering purchasing and would like your feedback:
——Advance Adapters SYE with Tom Woods drive shaft
——Revolution Super 35 rear axle kit 30 spline
——4.56 re-gear front and rear (manufacturer suggestions?)
——35” KM3’s
——JKS 1.25” body lift
——Black Magic Brake Pads
——Borgeson steering shaft
——Not sure about the steering box upgrade (I think i heard of using a Durango steering box?)
——Lockers? I just can’t make up my mind. I know I want lockers that I can engage myself but ARB, Eaton, Detroit, etc. I just don’t know.
Again, this Jeep is for looks and moderate off roading. Not a DD. Just used on the weekends. I plan on buying all the parts and taking to an installer to do the transformation all at once. Please provide me with any feedback or suggestions. I’ve been reading this forum for years and I hope I’ve done most of my home work.
