    Hey Drew, got me a two door too. Also heading for full widths. Have the rear axle as well as the lockers for the front and rear. Need to come up with the front and a few goodies for it and it will be a go.

    yeah i love my fullwidths so far plaing in the yard anything i point and try and drive up it walks right up it. my front is a 77 ford d44. 77 was the last year i believe for the weld on wedges that need to be removed to mount your brackets. as far as brackets i used ballistic fabs xj/tj coil/shock/control arm mounts and rustys upper mounts. rotated everything 10* to keep the LA flat with the axle tube, nothing hangs below, but that put my coils at a funny pitch way forward so i need to shim the mount some how.

    Drew

    I checked out the one piece mounts. If you rotated everything like that, how is your castor angle? Just trying to be helpful.

    well i didn't do the actual set up but i believe the caster was set to what ever then just the mounts them selfs were rotated not the actual axle, the knuckles sit pritty flat on the top being they are flat tops so i believe the caster is within spec. it drives down the road decently i would be comfortable driving the 10-15 min drive to town and back with out a problem and probly further. i dont think it would be highway worthy but thats what i got a flat tow setup and tow rig for.
