Wagoneer Axles Into The CJ

[butler44]

Guys, does anyone have photos of late 70's Waggie axles under their CJ5 ? I am doing SOA on mine. I am also looking for pictures of brackets used or made to outboard springs for this setup? Thanks. I am trying to build everything myself, and if you have something that was easy to build and pull off that would be great! Thanks!

I've got a 79 Waggy Dana 44 in the front. I narrowed it 4". Also running SUA. I put F150 hubs on to keep the 5x5-1/2 bolt pattern.

Heres my build with J-10 axles.. The outboarbrakets are 3" angle with reinforcing wedges welded in. They were welded to the frame. pretty basic and easy. If I were to do it again I would bend some 1/8' plate to make a L about 4"x5" the same legth as the angle to wrap the frame nd reinforce the bracket.. it wasnt needed but I thnk it wouldnt hurt.
