i just got another email from wfo they said they couldn't do it either, i atalked to crane again, and he quoted me $288 for both arms, 2 stud/cone kits and shipping. Seems kind of high to me? Does anyone else know?

did you try talking to parts mike, if they will change the taper/size for no charge or close to nothing you will be out the door for about 220 plus shipping
heres some sh*t ive been working on, the first is the new 2 1/2" shackle hangers for the front when i go spring over with the rear cj springs. I didn't make the shackle hangers, but just for good measure i gusseted the cr*p outa them with 1/4"

and heres my idea for rear shock mounts, cj rear shocks are attached to the spring plates and when i go spring over the plates will be to high to be of any use, i these will be welded to the axle tube. They are made from 1 1/2" by 1/4" box and i made them effecttivly act as skids, they will be welded level with the axle tube on the facing forward on the jeep, this way if they do hit anything the ramps will be used.

shock mounts look cool but they will hold water and dirt and the shock bushings will be working overtime.
mount one in front of the axle tube and one in the rear and it will damp wheel hop.
i made "antiwrap" spring perches for the rear of the cj this morning, they are made from 2.5x2.5x1/4" box. They are 8" long to hopefully fight axle wrap in the rear, these along with 7 leaf cj rear military wrap springs and i hopefuly won't have to run an antiwrap bar.
heres a comparison between some aftermarket ones that i got from flem that measure 4.5" long ,i'll run them on the front
