Ok, I've done some reading and searched... so calm down if it's been covered, I tried.
If I go with WJ outers, I've got an issue with the hubs: they are 5 on 5 and I think they need 1/4" spacers welded in (where?)
There are hub kits out there to change the bolt pattern but then you have manual hubs, which aren't desirable to me for a number of reasons.
Is there any way to get WJ knuckles with a 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern without manual hubs?
How about getting my 8.25" shafts in a 5 on 5 variety? Is the new Lib 5 on 5 or 5 on 4.5? Is there enough meat on the 8.25 shaft to re-drill to the new pattern?
Nevermind. Found it. Some machining on 01 TJ hubs should do it...
