I'm already half way into this swap so I'll give a brief history.
It's 74 CJ w/360, T-18, D20, 36" TSL's. It has a rear D44 with a Powertrax No slip locker. The front was a open D30 until a few months ago when I destroyed on Can Opener. I knew it was only a matter of time. I found a set of Scout axles that were totaly rebuilt w/5.38's, the rear is welded and the front is open. I'm not a fan of welded rears but the price was right. I'll take the locker from my D44 and put it in the front. I'm hoping I will like the No Slip up front as it will unlock on cornering, it locks when under throttle. I'm using YJ springs up front and Xj in the back. Here's some progress.
Homemade spring hangers, spring plate and axle perches.
