I would go with a JK Dana 44 if your going to invest the money into a solid axle. That way you can still keep the 5 on 5 bolt pattern, you can run 35's or larger without an issue and most likely not have an issue with the abs wheel speed sensors

^ he is right on the JK 44. If you build a JK 44 right, it can be stronger than a standard Dana 60 and not really costs much more. Go look at some of the mud trucks. Some of those guys use a built Dana 44 instead of goign 60's or Rockwells. They seem to do fine but it all comes down to how you wheel, not what you wheel.
If I ever do an SAS, I'd like to get the aftermarket JK 44 (I think from Currie or Dynatrac, I can't remember)

Question: Say you do SAS with a D44, done up right and run 35s, what gears would you put in and how would you regear the rear axle?!? Also assuming someone as myself has QDII which would render itself useless, how would you get the computer to act right when wheeling?

Id put a D44 in the rear as well.
Us QDII guys would be in trouble. A 2010 hemi QTII would be ideal..
