The reason I said 10.5 is because I was looking at getting the anthrite FR500 DD for the rear and 17x9 for the front. I know the SN95 axles will push the DD out too much. Does the AlloyUSA axles maintain the stock axle length? Yeah I saw the Detroit locker on summit....expensive piece but I know you get what you pay for...

ORIGINAL: 2 kwik

buy a new clutch pak install it and use 1 disc(the best one) from your old set in with the new pak..this will tighten up the pak and will work great
I don't know if I want to stay stock...I would rather upgrade now getting ready for the rebuild when the time and money comes..

If you can afford it buy all the stuff you want for later right now. Theres a new diff, axles, rims, tires most likely, and 5 lug rotors up front to match.

But if you cant afford all that stuff now and burning both rubbers is that important to you, rebuild your current diff and buy the other stuff piece by piece.

Or (this is what i would do) you could get a 31 spline diff and 31 spline 4 lug axles right now since youll have to take the old diff out to rebuild it anyway, may as well replace it. Then later on you can just swap in 5 lug 31 spline axles in where the 28s were since the 31 diff will already be in there. Can always resell the old stuff. Best of all, you can burn both rubbers again.

Decisions decisions.
