[QUOTE="Ty., post: 1303418, member: 18397"] My Willy's is 82" hub to hub. toy axles wrangler s/o. Short wheelbases like a little weight up front IMO. I'm running a vortec 4 V6 with a turbo 350 tranny, and a dana 20 t-case. So far its been a great bullet proof setup. Little engines, and low gears are O.K., but being able to spin those tires, and launch up stuff is really nice on occasion. Also if you like the idea of propane, a 10 gallon tank should lay down between your wheel wells. Oh, yea, you will wanna keep the engine as far forward as possible. I'm not running a standard fan, just an elec. pusher up front, even had to grind the grill out a little to fit the motor. Rear driveline should be just long enough. Unless you get too flexy, then you'll need to stretch out. Front drive line might be O.K. if shackle are up front. I did a shackle reversal, and had to get long splines, becouse they would bottom out one way, and fall apart the other. [/QUOTE]
