[psycoticredneck]

Here is what I have, A tub and frame of 1997 TJ Jeep, has been gutted, No Motor, Tranny, Running Gear. I have from a 1979 Ford Dana 44 Coil Spring Front Diff, and Ford 9" Posi Rear Diff, Granny 4 Speed Transmission and Transfer Case, and built 302 ready to install. Wondering if anyone has ever done this and if so, pics or advice much appreciated. I am about to attempt it this PROJECT!!!!!

The Dana 44 will need to be retubed or used with the stock style Ford Radius arm suspension. The 78-79 1/2 ton Dana 44's have 2 piece axle tubes with cast chunks conecting them. The cast chunks are HOLLOW (no axle tube runing through them).
