    3.4 swap, solid front axle, front and rear locked
    Longtime lurker, first time actually posting anything since my '93's become such a headache (that I willingly gave myself) (as it normally goes). It's got a 3.4, solid axle swap, double locked on 35s.

    This was from when I lived in GA, I’m pretty sure it was Flatland Rd. I think I heard some rumblings a little while ago that it was at risk for being closed though.

    OME 2in Lift, Detroit Axle full steering replacement kit, 33's. On the list is lockers, sliders, bumpers, snorkel, tire rack, and an engine swap much later.
    How did that 3.4 swap go? I have a 95, and I am thinking about doing that, but I want to keep the IFS until it is more of dedicated trail rig.

    Can’t recommend it enough honestly. You can find the 3.4 pretty cheap and mine went really smooth with ORS’s help.
    (I do also recommend the SAS. imo it feels better on and off road than the torsion bars)

    Good to know! But after what I spent on the OME torsion bars, I think I'll run them for a while lol
