So,
Been reading through posts getting ready to do a one piece axle upgrade with a rear drum to disc conversion. I think I have the general steps/parts down, but want to make sure I have/get the right parts, and know the right place to get them. I have a 78 CJ with Front Discs.
If I am missing something, let me know
I put the parts I have the most questions about first. To All Readers, Still researching, so use this post with Caution!!
If you are looking for a how to try these-There are lots, but these are pretty good
