I figured I should start my own thread instead of further invading Ben's...
I finally got some wider axles to throw under the Jeep sometime in the future. It's stupid tall and way too narrow, so hopefully I can bring it down a little when it's all apart by playing with the suspension some and with the wheels that are waiting for me in Austin it'll have a wider stance. I'm starting with a leaf sprung High Pinion Dana 44 and a Ford 9" from a mid-70s F-series truck.
Disassembly has gone fairly easily so far. The spindles were *****es to get off, but after a loaner tool was found by Paul the pass. side one was off and we got the bearing races out of the Ford 9".
Here they are stripped down and ready to get all the rust cleaned off.
