nice explanation.. makes sense to me.
Thanks

Yes, you can run stock steering no problem with the WJ knuckles. Keep in mind the WJ steering arms are clocked just a hair lower than the XJ's so if you are lifted you will be that much closer to maxing out the TRE's travel.
Negative. So I am correct in assuming I can use TRE's intended for XJ knuckles without worry on WJ knuckles? I'd like to be as clear as possible before I've torn everything down and find out I have to alter my parts list completely.
Well - I am confused to say least as to track bar, pitman arm, and drag link.
If I use a JKS drag link with WJ ends and a JKS adjustable track bar and a waggy pitman arm do I use a stock location frame bracket for the track bar ( I am using the over the axle lower bracket?
I have OTK steering and am using WJ ends on the JKS tie rod. I cannot find a stock height frame side track bar mount that is beefier than stock. Does anyone make one?
If I'm way off just slap me upside the head and tell me what I need to do. I think this is a case of way tooooooo much info out there to make sense of.

It kinda does - but I want to know the length of just the rods (without the ends). I need to know how much to tell my guy to shorten them by.My tie rod knuckle to knuckle is 54" my drag link is 32" but your drag link will depend on your lift... Hope it helps

your rotor choices are
- WJ Rotors (require redrilling for the proper bolt pattern)
- '95 (and up?) crown vic rotors - do not require redrilling of rotors nor grinding of Unit Bearings/Hub assemblies
- 2001 Ford Explorer Sportrac rotors are good if you dont mind grinding 1/8th inch off the unit bearing/hub assemblies.
