pretty sure none bolt right in but you only have to move the perches a half inch out each... its not too bad. and you need to either get rid of the flange ( highly recommended) or get an adapter. if its a disc 8.8 prlly need a new proportioning valve and other than that it should bolt right in and youll need to make shock mounting brackets -
So this one wont be an easy one eh?

Its about as easy as your gonna find.. theres no such thing as a really easy axle upgrade very few axles will bolt into a vehicle they werent meant to be in and on top of that very few of those axles are desireable.. id just do it its not that much workComment

It's not terrible, cut off the old spring mounts... measure to correct length weld new ones on make sure the pinion angle is where you want it. then measure for shock mounts and weld those on and your good to go. the yolk is as simple as taking out a nut and putting it back on for the most part and the prop valve isnt difficult and dont forget to bleed the brakes afterwards...Comment

waggy 44 is the easiest thing to bolting in.. supposedly it goes into a yj wiht very few mods.. youll have a diff bolt pattern front and rear but if you go to adapt-it.com they have adapters from the 5 on 4.5 (8.8) to the waggy 6 on 5.5Comment
