VolsJK Posted August 5, 2014 Author Posted August 5, 2014 ***UPDATE*** All parts are acquired for my lift, axle, tire swap. JK sport axles 4.10 gears, chromoly shafts: D30 (trussed, gusseted, ready for high steer, raised TB bracket), D44. -D30 has the Artec truss on it, will need to modify it to refit new spring/shock mount (home-fab). Other than that, it's ready to roll to bolt right up (might have to angle in lower CA mounts a hair) -D44 needs to be completely stripped of all brackets. Fabbing leaf perches ourselves with U-bolt delete plates. JK ruffstuff offset tie rod, stock JK drag link (if it's drivable for now, if not will get a 1 ton upgrade), JK adjustable track bar, second-hand double sheer Iron Rock frame side bracket. RC fixed LCAs, going to use JK UCAs (cut and reweld) for appropriate pinion angle. Front springs: either going with Rough Country 4.5" springs with 1" spacers, or with BDS 6" springs. We'll just see how the rear end sits after the spring-over. Shocks: for now I will use what I have laying around, will measure what is needed at a later date. extended brake lines, still haven't thought about routing the rear. All I lack is the part to convert to rear discs and need to get new rotors and pads. Metal bought for bumpers and JK BFG 32" take-offs. I'll do an extensive write-up for anyone interested in doing this swap.
VolsJK Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 Update: Used the plasma cutter and grinding wheel on the rear JK D44. The crappy, tedious, time-consuming, not fun work is done! Max the dog helped and wore him out!
SW86 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Just be glad you had a plasma, it sucks even more with just a grinder!
jbain Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Yep I cut off the brackets on my Dana 44 as well as my inner C's and narrowed it with a grinder and cutting wheel.....
