Ended up selling the set of 24 bolts and Bajas to a fellow jarhead in CA, so I had an excuse to see if I could stuff in the 46s.... I actually got the front onto the studs barely. Looks like I'll need about 6" - 12" stretch to adequately clear without lifting too high.

The rear I couldn't even fit into the wheelwell, but I had plans to cut a ton of this out anyways.

I took a set of MT/Rs and slapped them on a set of old school aluminum 5 spokes with 5" of backspacing. Figure these would make for a great set of driver tires that I will either run on the Ram or Jeep.

I will not be changing out the rear axle in the Ram for a while, as I found a cheap D35 for the TJ for $100 that I can use to roll it around on. This way I can focus my dwindling time and funds on doing the front axle swaps.
