Spent the weekend on the rear end of the Jeep. I took a couple of pictures and thought I would post.
I won on Ebay, aTeraflex disc brake kit, minus the calipers.
Chromoly Dana44, 30 spline shafts installed with new bearings, seals and studs. No real issues other than the Teraflex spacers not cooperating and the gear oil and brake fluid mess.
New leaf springs, 5" Full Traction installed with the 4* shims (nice clamp, huh).
7 leaf Military wrap springs. They are about 3/4" longer on the front and 1 1/2" on the rear.
I needed to move my shackle back a hole to maintail the proper angle. (before)
(after)
Teaser shot with the new kicks on.
Still need to pick up the calipers, weld the brake tabs and bend the brake lines. I bought Teraflex parking brake cables, but I think they may be too long. After that, on to the front.
