it wouldn't be too hard you would just have to find some new spiders for the rear and and pull the welded ones out

thanks guys. for the rear end I will probably swap out the carrier and spiders for open ones.
Brett let me know about the control arms. How much for a set?

well the jeep got mostly put back together the other day. I spent the extra time to clean everything really well and hit it with some paint. still need to hook brakes back up and driveshafts and repair oil pan. still need to swap out the welded rear too(if I end up doing that) and get new yoke and front driveshaft. I think I am going to warrenty out the two front tires too... they got pretty eaten up when the control arms gave out

I drilled out the yoke and canadian rigged it... it is 4wd again... I wouldn't wheel it this way though... bet it wouldnt last long... I really need to hit the yards

did you drill it out and put ubolts on instead of straps? if so I bet it would last pretty long as long as the nipples are still there on the side

no i drilled it enough to reverse the broken bolts out... only half the threads left

shouldn't be too bad, no easy out? I used to use them and the bolts would come out pretty easy
