4X4 Show And Tell!!! You need them for LR shooting!!!

[xsn10s]

4" and 31's, and a 5 speed manual. Will be upgrading it to a 4.5" long arm, regearing and running 33x10.5/11.5's eventually. With the ratios, a similar year xj set of axles from an auto transmission will be 3:55, and perfect for 33's in a manual. The 5 speeds have 3:07 axles stock

Yup I that's what I'd do. My axles are 3.55. 97 or 98 XJ 8.25 Chrysler rear axle was I think 31 spline so stronger than earlier years. But 3.55's would be perfect. My tires are 33x12.50r15. Both the old ones and the new Achilles.

my 1x1

'85 M1008. Stock besides the wheels.

'63 K20, again all original besides the wheels. Although this one requires some additional work before I can really take it anywhere.

Just a few of my hunting rigs
96 t100 lockers front and rear marlin crawl box sitting on 35s
The horses are locked front and rear full time and a lowly 1 horsepower per ride
Artic cat m8 turbo for the snow days

I see you have a couple of the original 4X4 off road vehicles. The horse.

With 33s, 4.56s are the way to go.
I ran 5.86s in my Jeep w. 39" Red Labels.

I'd give my left nut and half of my right for that '63!!

Just my F150 4x4 with a locker, used to tow the Polaris General. When the grandkids and wife are along I take the RV and haul the General. Either way, I can get to and from easily.

Well this one of a few options. Ha ha

I've gone through a few hunting rigs over the years. Don't have pics of the older ones. Here's my last two. 2010 one ton diesel out on the dunes before I lifted it and put on bigger tires and my present rig, 2019 3/4 ton gasser with 35s.

 

[xsn10s]

I miss my old Ford Bullnose 86 F250. Straight 300-6 4X4 4sp manual with granny gear. Before that I had a OBS 93 F350 4X4 with 460 and C6. Burned a lot of gas scouting for elk, deer, antelope, yote, and especially chucks lol. Pretty dumb, but a ton of fun!

With the 5 speed in an xj, that would be too low unless its a dedicated trail rig. The AX15 maual has a different final output ratio than the AW4 autos that are in the xj's, for those, 4.10 or 4.56's are in fact perfect w/33's. The manual however is better suited with higher gears for a given tire size vs the automatic. Stock, the ax15 comes with 3.07 gears vs the aw4 with 3.55's, but rpm's at 65 are similar between the two in high gear
