http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/ ... _200345429 It's been a good one. Puts my '04 Ram in the air with no problem.

Would they be worth the effort? I'm running a hp30 w/ alloy shafts and a D44 right now on 31" mud kings. I was thinking it might be fun to pull the J20 axles and build them during the winter. They're out of a post-80 J20 so the D44 has the driver diff and the rear is a D60FF. The idea of having an 8-lug, almost-full-width MJ on 36" tires sounds awesome.

Well, bolted up and tested the locker. Works exactly as it should. All is well once again.

Well, I still don't have my axle together yet. The springs in the Aussie were toast so I had to order new ones. Overnighted, the pins and springs ran me $54. I'm not very happy with the shop that did the initial install. I should have just done it myself in the first place.

The locker was put together incorrectly; the pins and springs were flip-flopped. It's still apart because I ran out of daylight, but I'm hoping it works after correcting said problem.

The truck is in 2wd. I'm going to pop the diff cover Friday, pull the carrier, and check to make sure everything's reassembled correctly. I may have incorrectly installed the Aussie and not realized it due to the Posi-Lok.

I did the one piece axle coversion on my dana 30 yesterday. Prior to that, I had an Aussie and a Posi-lok. After the conversion, I'm having bad issues with the aussie. I can barely turn, and I know it should be "nearly invisible". What's the deal?!

Is anyone running it? Any opinions? I know heim joints are a mixed bag, but it looks like an ok setup.

I intend to upgrade to a 3-link long arm system. Should I be concerned about the strength of the Dana 30 Disco housing?

Did you get the adjustable arms? Any guage on durability of the bushings?

They fit with no issues?

Anyone have any intel on IRO longarms? Will they fit an MJ?

I have an '89 swb 4x4 with 31s. Prior to regearing, I had 3.55s. Now I'm running 4.10s. World of difference. It felt like I was dragging an anchor with the 3.55s. Based on my personal experience, I recommend 4.10s.

I don't know anything about the Liberty because up until today, I wasn't really interested. Anyway, what kind of reliablity does the CRD have vs. the gas-burner? Is it prone to not starting in the cold?
