howdy, wondering if anyone is running a fj80 front on a sprung under yj? this axle would be the perfect width for me, but unsure if i can make it work with leafs since it's so off set. i'm running a dana 300, and hopefully a c&c 14 bolt, and 37's. i know, 14 bolt is overkill; i don't like fixing stuff when i'm wheeling...and it will get the sawzall shave. thanks in advance. seth.

i have searched this many times, but ain't getting the answer. my google fu is not strong.
 
Not many people run that axles because of the steering arms. Tie rod is on the rear of the housing. There is a guy on Pirate who is in R&D right now with new knuckles.

It is a great axle though. It is strong. I've almost bought one a couple times. You'll just need to measure for yourself to see if it'll fit.
 
Great axles... But I'm a little biased. (check my sig)

Anything is doable. There should be enough room for a soa on one.
 
hey, thanks guys. i'm thinking i need to find with a d44 at 65"...high pinion would be nice, but hard to come by for passenger drop.
