I have a chance to get my hands on a set of Dana 44's out of a scout. I know this is a popular swap for CJ's. I know I have to move the spring perches. Does any one know what I have to do to get the steer geometry correct and the tie rod from the steering box to the front end. I would be grateful for any advice
Thanks

I think you are looking at having to rotate the knuckles to get the pinion pointed up the way it should.

Do you know where I can get that done and how far it needs to be rotated

It really depends on how much lift you're gonna have..

It really depends on how much lift you're gonna have.. I want to keep the lift I have 4.5" I think I'm gong to do a front shackle reverse when I put the axles in. Move the spring mounts out to the side doesn't sound too hard. Beat to fit paint to match
