    do you really want to be stuck out in the woods? do you enjoy swapping shafts at night in the winter? do you like the possibility of snapping while turning around in the gas station? do you want a decreased turning radius? do you want to wear our your tires like crazy?

    if you answer yes to any of these questions, i say go for it

      I'll be the first to tell you to weld up an axle, ask anyone here. but you are running 33s and it won't last long. Trust.

        okay thanks everyone for the honest answers. This is why i'm asking because i had no idea about any of this. I'm seventeen and on a high school budget which is next to nothing. Thats why i have no room to test all this out my self.
        Lift: 4.5" RC
        Tires: 33" BFG A/T's
        Misc: Hamerred Tan Paint, Homemade Roof Rack, Bumpers and Half Doors.

          I'd lock your front dana 30 before even thinking about that 35

              it will take you no time to find a cheap upgraded bolt in axle for your xj. dont even bother pulling the cover on a d35 if you wheel.

                yar, i never said it was horrible, but you just have to weigh the options (or at least be aware of them).
