JL/JT Axle Swap Details

[Jamesval035]

For my JL rear without street on a triangulated 4 link, I’ve had to notch the rear footwell for the upper arms to stuff into. My JL front without a truss or stretch hasnt hit the frame but it has hit the exhaust bend and self clearanced much more than I’d like, even with hydro bump cans and measuring clear on the rack.

I see in your JL brake post your not running hi steer. I think that’s where the frame notch will come into play for me. Did you get any stretch from the front on yours?

Got a little be done on the rear axle, lower shock brackets and the track bar mount... will hopefully be able to get it finished this weekend.

Maybe you’ve said it @Rickstar321, but are you stretching further in the rear?

Not in this part of the build, but eventually I'm doing the Genright TJ to LJ stretch... will be a 115" wheel base, and can put an LJ hard top on it if I want.
