what to do?

Im getting my new pig next week and cant wait to take it camping. I have my dd/camping rig BJ60 in the shop right now due to a blown engine. That 60 is also soa/4.88s lockers hysteer blah blah blah.

Should I steel the axles from the 60 and put them in the 55? It would be pretty sweet. or keep her stock and rock the 31s?

Dan
