[QUOTE="NotMatt, post: 1131102, member: 15947"] First question... Width. The 14 bolt is 67.5" WMS width right now with standard SRW hubs on it. If I put C&C or dually hubs on it, it will be 63.5" WMS width. The 60 is 69.25" WMS width right now. My main dillema is this: I would like to retain the stock spring width on the front of the YJ. If I kept the front axle driver's drop (I'm not, but this is just for measurement), I would need to narrow it exactly six inches, which would put the WMS width at 63.25, almost identical to the rear with C&C hubs. Is this TOO narrow? I want to be able to run possibly up to a 42" tire, and I think if I narrow the front this much, I would end up with way reduced steering due to the tire hitting the springs or frame rail. My other thought was to run the axles full width, outboard the front springs, and run H1 beadlocks without recentering... however even at that, my research shows I will need to run a 2" spacer on both sides up front to clear most high steer arms. Thoughts? Experience? What did you do? [/QUOTE]
