front 60 inner c's on the tubes
hydro ram of your choice
custom shafts of your choice

You're going to run into more trouble with the wide frame and body, building the axle and steering it is the easy part.

i'd consider using one of the aftermarket knuckles tho. the ford versions seem to be the weekest of the 3 types of 60 knuckles. as a rear axle, those knuckles are gonna take a beating.

I have the combo and i narrowed the frame,coilovers,recentered hp 60. There are pics on jeepaholics. I origonally kept the old frame and coils but limited the turning radius.
I lost my red star and don't play on the net anymore or i'd post pics.

I made my axles 65 WMS. the rear can B set at what ever caster you want.

I set mine at 0. had them at 5DEG before. never noticed any diffrence.

I narrowed mine 5 inches, so that it is even with the inner fender in the rear...
