[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 433143, member: 18789"] Depends on what you want to do with it but honestly for up to 35's, the Dana 35 can suffice if you build it with a Super 35 kit which upgrades to 30 spline shafts and uses a locker to get you there. Or you could get a Dana 44 out of a TJ, but they can be hard to find and expensive when you do find them. For your use you don't seem like you need to go that crazy, the front 30 and either a super 35 or D44 will work just fine. Front axle should be perfectly fine. If you want to future proof it for 35's, going with a 30 spline conversion up there isn't a bad call, although it means you'll have to buy a locker up there too since the stock open diff is 27 spline only.
