Still have the D35, but not for long. By picking up the Dana 30 out of a 95 with 4.10 gears, I now have all the major pieces for the swaps. The 8.8 that is going in has 4.10 gears and a limited slip. I will be moving up to 4.10 gears( from 3.73), 4 wheels disc, rear LSD, and stronger front U-joints!!! The 95 YJ's use the same 297x u-joints as the TJ's and I am planning to swap in some Spicer 760x ( same size as 297x) which are another 20% stonger according to spicer. The guy I bought the axle from left the new version of the Rubicon Express track bar relocation bracket on the axle which is a much better design then the one I have. The new Curie U-bolts came in a few weeks ago, and the Tom Woods Drive shaft I bought came with the 8.8 to 1310 adaptor, So I SHOULD have all the parts I need minus the odds and ends for the brakes.
As soon as I get some free time I am moving into the garage to start wrenching. Between replacing my gargae door openers, setting up Christmas lights ( I go a little overboard according to the wife) and dealing with the in-laws I havn't had time to start.
I am going to hold onto the spare 8.8 until I get the one w/ 4.10 in. I want to make sure the little stuff like brakes work. The other one I have is out of a 98 w/ 117 miles, 3.55 gears and open diff. It is complete from disc to disc.
