Question guys.... part of the stage of the cj buildup my buddy john is doing is installing waggy springs then soa'n the axles.
is there a way NOW to install the springs with the STOCK axles spring under without having to do any changes to angles, driveshafts, etc? dont flame me too bad im a coil guy hehehe.
we have the springs and we have to do a tub swap like in the next couple weeks just to get it tag'd and im thinking if we can go ahead and swap over the springs however they will sit for the 60's NOW we can go ahead and build the skids and stuff and it will still be driveable.
the plan is make it driveable now and get it tag'd (its been sitting for SEVERAL years the tub is shot we have another tub and new pans) while the tub is off were going to build the body lift and work on some other stuff that way he can still drive it to work instead of his truck, and we can take it to the beach (40 minutes from assateague island) this summer and and also do some wheel'n. THEN come fall put in 4 wheel steer'n 60's hydro rams on teh suspension, driveline (360,400,20) and the other goodies.
does what im asking make sense and doable or am i shooting for the moon on this one.
thanks
