I am considering a front and rear 3:73 J20 axle set for my 71 J4000. A Dana 60 and a Dana 44. 8 lug. The dana 60 would be full float with two wheel bearings per side right? Is the diff centered or offset? 12 inch brakes? Or 11?
While not a big deal, will the spring pads be in the right spot for a 71 spring pack?
The dana 44 front would be disc correct? Or drum? I figure I would need the master cylinder and proportioning valve for good stopping function. Is this axle a passenger side drop?
I don't know the year of the J20.
Any do's or don't's would be appreciated.
My 71 currently has 5 lug Dana 44's. I bought a 5 lug rear Dana 60 that is an IH axle so I was able to buy new drums for it. I would rather have 8 lug axles. Especially from another Jeep.
Am I forgetting anything other than needing 8 lug wheels?
