  1. The Oil Soup

    I put a 93 Cherokee rear axle (drum) 3:55 ratio on. The drive shaft did bolt up after all. The front yoke was gummed up with old grease, after it was cleaned it slid out to mate up with the axle. On the front axle I purchased new springs and reversed the eyes lowering another 3". I did use the Ford dropped tie rod ends and fabbed a new drag link from an old Ford tie rod with new moog ends. On the rear axle I raised the front spring mount and added shorter jeep shackles and flipped them. I'll send pics. Gary

      Thanks for the comeback, I guess I will not know what I will be up against till I get the axle installed as far as the drag link remedy goes.Glad to hear you got the issue with the rear end solved. I went the flipped rear shackle on the rear looks great. I am dealing with the dreaded steering wheel removal now,will look for a puller. I will stay in touch sounds like we both have the same idea about how we want the rig to look,thanks again Gary, best regards,Gordy.
