Jeep Lj which front axle to build

[flip2spin]

Im having a hard time deciding what front axle to build for my LJ
The dana 30 that is in it, has 4.88's allready but im afraid it will not hold up to 35's and lunch box locker.

A front d60 is over kill, so how much stronger would a hp d44 be? Are the u-joints not about the same size a d30.

HP D30 will suit you well and be cheap.

You could put RCVs in the 30....

will a spartan locker fit both a lp30 and a hp30

LP and HP use the same carrier, so the lockers swap over, gears are different.
