| looking good Paul I didn't think that you were doing that much work but looking at the housing you kinda don't have any way to get around it. Are you going to move the springs around in the rear at all? It would be a good time to extend the wheel base.  _________________ 94YJ Tera low 4:1, 4:10's, HP D44 front locked, 8.8 rear locked, 37" Truxus M/T's, custom spring over front/spring under rear, along with other stuff (Trail rig) 00WJ open/open, lifted 31" MTR's (curbcrawler) 84 Toyota Pickup open front, welded rear, 63" chevy rear springs, propane injection, 37" mtr's, 4.7:1 Tcase 07 FORD E350 SD (TOW VAN)

| Paul what gears are you planning to run in the YOTA axles? Or are you waiting to get thru the build before you start building the axles? _________________ 94YJ Tera low 4:1, 4:10's, HP D44 front locked, 8.8 rear locked, 37" Truxus M/T's, custom spring over front/spring under rear, along with other stuff (Trail rig) 00WJ open/open, lifted 31" MTR's (curbcrawler) 84 Toyota Pickup open front, welded rear, 63" chevy rear springs, propane injection, 37" mtr's, 4.7:1 Tcase 07 FORD E350 SD (TOW VAN)

to much money to go spring over I would have to get new springs and fight the battle of alxe wrap. If I used my springs it would be wayto high and this Jeep tips enough now. I was not going to do the longfieds until I broke the stock axle but I realy don't want to pull it apart after the first trip. |
