i got a great deal on one of these axle and i would really like to use this kind because it is high pinion with disks, and strong axle shafts, but i have a few questions from anyone who might have allready done this swap. what leafsprings and shackles did you use, i want to make this a mild rockcrawler yet road safe. so how can i get a good aproach angle and flex, but reliability with this setup.
 
oh, i thought thats what that was, good luck with that, r u pioneering the trail on this one or have you seen others do it before.
 
they are around. :icon_thumby:
