anyone on here done it? how did you go about it? run radius arms or convert it for factory style control arms I'm debating on buying it any info would be great.
 
no it cant be done send it to me imediatly for proper disposal as they are very dangerous and i am the only one qualified to take it or it will blow up:flame:




WAIT... is it a 30 or 44 you better check cause it may not be worth it
 
The D-44 model has ball joints, while the D-30 uses kingpin styleknuckels. I am getting ready to swing pretty much the complete drivretrain from an E/B under my MJ (Ford 9" rear, D-44, 4.10 gears allready installed by factory, NP435, D-20 (with the lower gears in it)). I am going to be using a '93 Mustang Cobra 5.0 under the hood also. So, I would say, yeah, it is a good upgrade. Just remember that the axles are a little narrower than the XJ, and either run adapter/spacers to get the wheel pattern right, or just get wheels with the correct off-set.
