Well I dont have nearly as much time as I need to get my CJ back together and on the trails. So for the time being I am picking up an MJ long bed. My plans are 4.5" Coils SOA in the rear run 33-35" tires Probably 33 for now b.c I have them, and i will probably end up Bobbing the bed.
I have a D44 already for the rear with a limited slip, and I am picking up an HP dana 30 for the front with matching gears.
One question i have, Is there a way to convert the front to manual locking hubs with out buying the $800 warn kit. Are there other vehicles i could scavange parts of of with manual hubs, and keep the 5x4.5 bolt pattern?
Here is a very quick photoshop of what my goal is

The body on the one i am picking up is not nearly as clean, but that is what will make it a good trail rid. And the factory wheelbase is 119" Which i hope is not TOO long but i guess i will see
