    Project: Rusty WagonWheel

    I saw this pristine 93 ZJ on the side of 249 on my way home from work today. It is fulltime 4x4 and has a 5.2 with a new transmission. The exterior white paint must have been from a early 90s Chevy because it is all pealing off, especially on the pass. side. The roof is a nice shade of brown/orange.

    It actually runs very well. The front drivers CV is popping pretty bad, the rear hatch doesnt open, the rear taillight is cracked a little, the rear bumper is a little bent, and teh fog lights are busted. But it has a screamin' V8, Infinity Gold stereo, and cold A/C I hear the 5.2s sound great with a Summit $20 cutout (Hot Pocket you need this Jeep, make me an offer)

    If I keep it, I am thinking a cheap spacer lift and some 31s, maybe lock the front/rear. Will a locked 30 front and locked 35 rear hold up to even 31s? Looking mostly to make it a Spring Creek , General Sams, 47, Shiloh, BMRA, type rig on the cheap.

    Can I just put a regular old inner/outer front axle shaft in it, or does it require the CV style?
