Well I have been reading alot about the D44 outers on the 35 beams. I think it is great. Now that my 85 Bronc is no longer good for anything but a bunch of parts. A nice BIG stump inflicts alot of damage when sliding down a muddy slope sideways. I figure I can part out the drivetrain as it is in great shape. I would love to put the 9" out back and widen the front to match. With the additional width and a moderate lift, I see no reason I can't run the 33x15.50 Claws on the X. The autofab kit would be awesome but it cost more than my X and Bronc put together. I seen that some of you guys were doin this awhile back and am wondering if you are still. If so what kind of expenses am I lookin at? I am pretty sure the biggest expense will be machine work. I can easily handle the build-up and install, and I have all the 44 parts, just need a donor 35. If anyone has drafted any spec sheets for this I would truly appreciate it. Thanx.
