Vit rear 5.83 options

[cj]

Well after much pondering and hunting I now have two solutions at the same time. The easy one is I have just found a new rear 5.83 R&P but it will cost more than the Calmini price as it is coming out of another country. I also have found a cheapish D44 out of a Scout II that I could put a 5.89 in. It has the same stud pattern, centered diff and the wms to wms is only 1" wider and I would end up with 1.31" 30 spline axles as well. But it will mean more fabbing to fit and shaving the diff for clearance and I will need to buy a new ARB locker as mine won't swap over. I was considering shaving my diff anyway and doing an axle rotation anyway so with selling my rear end complete it may make it not too much more $$$ to put the D44 in. Just the budget's going to take pounding in the short term.

what size tires you doing all this for?

I'm currently running 31's but will probably go back to something like a 33 which I've had on before. My low is fine but I'm trying to get my high sorted and a Sierra t-case is more than I need espicially if it had a rockhopper fitted.
