    can you change a single stick dana/spicer 18 to a twin-stick as easily as a dana 20? I can't seem to find any articles about it at all.

    thx.

    second question would be why do I want twin-stick but I know the answer is just to be cooler than guys with YJs and TJs :)

    Yes. All you need is all the fixins off an old twin stick D18. Stuff like shift rails, levers, front bearing cap, etc.

    Coolness factor is only one reason to convert to twins. If you 'forget' to put the interlock pill back you will be able to switch between 2wd & 4wd and remain in low range. A very helpful thing if you run a front locker.
