    I got my Roxor front axel home tonight. $970 out the door. Came complete hub to hub with calipers!! Going to swap out the gears and add a e-locker with 30 spline axles.

    The only thing I see that is less than perfect is single-hole knuckles. But man, that price. I’ve seen narrowed D44 empty housings go for nearly a grand.

    Yep, I'm thinking about changing it out for a Dana 30 knuckle.

    OMG, what I think I spent on my Dana 30. The 44 is set up for wide springs, how will you handle this?

    Couldn’t you just slide some bar stock in there and clamp down on it?

    Does the Roxor use a 2 piece tie rod like an early CJ, or a 1 piece with a hole in the end?

    Similar setup to a YJ or a single-hole knuckle chevy saginaw swap on an Early.

    Steering gear on frame in front of the cross bar. Drag link to passenger tre. Single tie rod knuckle to knuckle.

    Is it set up for narrow or wide track spring perches?
