It's pretty hard to go wrong with Dynatrac axles if you're talking aftermarket. What are you thinking about swapping in, full-width big-boys? Take a look at Fusion 4x4 as well.

Fusion 4x4 all day long. I am done with Dynatrac with their poor warrantee and custom made parts that they rape you on. I just had to buy a outer 35 spline for $400 when you can get them for $90 from dana because the dynatrac (foote) axle is 1" shorter then a standard off the shelf axle. Dan will set you up with what you need.

I would go with 72" wide axles if you are doing coil overs to gain the extra tube space to mount the shocks and it will give you more room the the coil overs. If you are just running coil overs and no bypass shocks mount the shock on top of the axle and move some stuff under the hood so you can get some real tall towers in there.
