Jump on www.pirate4x4.com (Search, Search, Search again before you post up) and see what others are doing with the same type of vehicle you are. If you want better axles, manual tcase, etc sometimes its easier to find a junk vehicle and buy the whole thing so you have everything you need. If you want to rock 37's a d44/9 combo will be your cheapest route and hold up nicely to anything you'll throw at it. Throw in a 205 tcase and you have a nice rig.
