I and most folks I wheel with run Yukon (randy's ring and pinion) gears.

Haven't had any problems so far.

Yukons are fine---spicers are better :;

Just weld the rear up! Problem solved.

Assuming its a ratio Dana/Spicer makes (TJ front 4.88 are aftermarket only)

i did find internals for my traclok so i can get it back on the road. still going to start buying parts alittle at a time to regear since i have a hard time saving money and the wife doesn't like spending big chucks of money at one time on the jeep, she figures that she could spend that money on sewing stuff.
