Re: D-44

Frankie have you verified that the pinion isn't centered or are you basing that on the axle shafts being two different lengths? On my old 44 rear I had a long shaft and a short shaft but the pinion was centered, it was simply based on the way the carrier was made.

Re: Tons, Atlas

Nice man... Really wish I had free time b/c I would really like to help out with these projects. Perhaps when Cam is 18 I will once again have free time. Maybe you can make it down for a day sometime this spring, getting to the fun part of the build now. I'd love to have you if you get free. Carl, ...

Re:

Yessir! Good news is I've found an HP30/8.25 up in Freeport from a '95 XJ on the cheap I can probably swap in in a day, 4.10 open/open. I'm figuring 3 days of work and I can have the axles swapped and the heep lifted and ready for the trail!

Free parking?

I think I'm about to pull the trigger on a nice, low miles, unmolested YJ. http://southcoast.craigslist.org/cto/3639529076.html At this particular time my garage is full. I have a buddy's TJ in there getting some frame patching done in my spare bay and my JK project is taking up tons of room. Does a...

For some reason youngblood still feels like he needs a back seat, I think it must be for his RC car because I've never seen anyone back there :lol:
