I'm swapping in either a full width D44 or D60 into the front of my rig soon and I have 2 questions. First, the axle is going to have manual hubs so what do I do with the vacuum lines running to my D30? Should I just cap them off or something? I want to keep my 231 because I have too much invested in it to get rid of it now (Currie SYE and Tera 4:1). Also, what did everyone do for steering? How did the stock steering match up to everything on your donor axle? I want to do a high clearance crossover steering eventually but I'm more concerned about getting it up and running as soon as possible because this is my daily driver and I can't afford to have it down for an extended period of time. Pics of your setups would be great, especially closeups of steering and stuff like that. Any other suggestions for a first time 1 ton axle swapper? I want things to go as smoothly as possible, so can you tell me what problems you ran in to while doing your swap?
