    It took me a while to find my first job out of college, then found the one im at now a year later. Youll find them
    Some guys i went to school with (they were auto tech majors) have jobs called "engineer" but nothing even close to engineering :facepalm:

    Dana 44 high pinion HD and stock rear for now. I'm only planing on 35-37s if it becomes a game of fix the broken axle shaft then I'll upgrade to one tons but don't think I need the huge axles for my style driving and all. My buddy has a grand Cherokee and we are doing a engine swap with cage and yesterday we found a super 60 Dana and rear sterling so he will be caged and one tons and 40-42 tires, that's not happening to my truck. I'll just start a buggy here soon to keep up with his ass

    Yah the rear is the cheapest part of the whole thing I just don't want to spend money on wheels and another drive shaft after spending 3k on this and still not having tires yet. I'll call the one tons "stage two"

    True that. I really wish one tons came in 6x5.5 lug pattern so I could just grab a sterling and be done with it.
