This is about 3rd on my list of things to do. First is tires, second is winch. I know will did a swap. Anything I should know for when I do it? Seems pretty easy and as if everything will just bolt run in.

your driveshaft will be one inch too long. It may work, but you risk the chance of bottoming out on your t-case . but other than that be sure to grab spring plates and u-bolts.

410s on 33's is fine, the majority of people on 33's in this country are geared at 410s or less.... somebody told me that if u gear too low w/ certain axles they get too hot on the road and explode driving down the highway

It may work, but you risk the chance of bottoming out on your t-case . but other than that be sure to grab spring plates and u-bolts. ive heard the pinion on the 44 is only like 1/2" longer, and since I have a 4.5" lift im hoping that cancels out the length difference? |

step 1 - find all nuts and bolts attached to your 35 and take them off
step 2 - put the 44 under the jeep, and put the nuts and bolts back on
