    Thanks everyone. I'm seriously considering a solid front axle conversion next fall. Just not sure I want to pour that much more money into the beast, but it would be a really awesome crawler then!

    Mind posting some updated pics with your new wheels? IIRC they are 17x8.5 w/-6mm offset which puts them at 4.5" backspace. Wondering if that caused any fitment issues with the tires rubbing the firewall?
