.. have planned to:
(1)sit the entire weight of the xj down on the Ford 8.8 axle with the U-bolts loosen and connect the driveshaft to transfer case , tighten up the pinion bolts-
(2) align as accurately as possible the DS and then tack weld my new spring-perches- I am however worried because the Ford 8.8 visibly has a narrower track and the pinion is outset an 1"inch or so, that I will have some additional problems with centering the new setup-
Any thoughts or advice,.comments as always appreciated-TIA
