Super 35 Axles and locker in D35

I cant afford to get into a major rear swap right now, so I wondered if a Super 35 kit and an OX locker would be ok for my D35. I gotta lock this rear up.

So long as you're not hammering it in competitive-level rock crawling, that's a good upgrade for up to/including 35" tires.

I'm running a trussed S35 on my 00 TJ, and it's held up fine with 35's. With 33's, it's a great addition, and will give you a ton of piece of mind. As with any upgrades, don't be stupid with the skinny pedal, and you'll be fine. Going with a selectable locker like the Ox will give you even more security with the axle as you can have an open diff on the street.

Kind of funny after reading kiksroks profile it says that he has super 35.

If your only running 33's then the super 35 will work great, I have one with 35" tires and no problems yet, I even ran on 35's for over a year and never broke a shaft and that was with one trip to Moab and numerous trips around where I live. If was going to spend any kind of money to get away from a dana 35 it would be spent on pro rock 60's and not a dana 44. A dana 44 housing is just as prone to flexing as a dana 44 sure the ring gear is a little stronger but as long as your not trying burn out on asphalt then you're probally not going to blow up a ring and pinion.

Running that very setup with trXus in 33, likely will go to 35's of some flavor next. works great.

and mr benderiff im pretty sure my se w/33's, 4.88's and SUPER 35 arb would leave your stock sport in the dust on the trail and on the street (well at least up to 55)
so keep your b/s comments to yourself

It will only be stock for just over another week, then i'd be happy to hit the trails with your 4 banger... Just be warned you might have to get on a freeway or two to get there haha. Remeber to turn your flashers on when your going less than 45..
