    A basic 2inch lift, to fit a set of 30's is on the list after rego and insurance. Lockers I don't think I can afford those yet.

    XJ diesel front diff (same gear ratio, high pinion diff is stronger, uni joint axles are stronger), drive shaft(stronger than CV type) & transfer case ( gives you 2wd thus saving fuel). These are all just bolt in items & cheap.

    Then Dana 44 rear diff.
    set of sliders.
    lift kit.

    Disconnects, side rails, tyres (s/hand muddies).. Do not waste time with a cheap lift, you will want a better lift later so save for the lift you want the first time.... A 242 transfer case would be a good move early, a straight swap over, just keep your own linkage though............
