Blackwells are an easy fit

I got some 44s I'm going to put on mine, but it might be awhile before I do.

i also plan on putting the K44s on mine. but, like Ricky...im gonna use the yota axles for a while. you'll see them on the final assembly of my rebuild. Ive confirmed that the leaf springs will indeed line up for proper fitment, and the 4 link conversion is pretty much straight forward for both axles.

I have some t Rex 60 I was thinking about throwing on there. That's why I wanted to see what's others are using.

K44 are a direct fit but you will need the new knuckles: K44 Knuckles For Trail Finder 2

Front 4 link kit is not as straight forward as the rear due to the tranny being low.

i believe the t rex 60 uses a very similar bolt pattern for the leaf springs, you may find that you'll like the ground clearance from the yota axles better...both are very strong though.

Yes the Ballistic cases are also a direct fit. The K44 TF2 knuckles can be used on those too.

Balistic axle is basically a TRex60 so these will fit: XVD Axle for T-Rex 60
