Which D80 are you referring to? If a dynatrac then the answer is obvious why not.

Going to keep a spare coilover in the event a strut blows. It is rare and most of the instances stem from a manufacturing issue a while back that was resolved.

The 10.5 has as much or more clearance than a shaved 14 bolt (about 1.5" over a stock 14 bolt). It's pure beef. I wanted the WMS to WMS to match. Hard to find a 14 bolt that is 72" wide. Already has disc brakes that hook up to the stock lines. The 2011 comes with tone rings, so for very little money I can get them and press them on and all my electronics will work. Basically, it's a strong axle with good ground clearance and that requires very little work to put under a JK. I think the reason you don't see more of them on JKs is that the diff is slightly offset passenger and can have clearance issues with the fuel tank. I won't have that issue.

Where exactly can you relocate that bulky gas tank? Not a lot of room under there. It won't fit where the muffler is unless you get an aftermarket tank right? Interested to see what you come up with

I'm relocating it to my local recycling location. I posted a CAD image above that gave away the secret location, haha. I'll be using the Genright TJ Crawler tank. Nice and thin with a cutout for diff clearence. I'll be building the floor up in the rear so the tank doesn't sit below frame level. Leaves me enough room for a 7" stretch and a rear seat.

Got some parts in today. Too bad they're for my rear D44. The lower CA brackets were trashed and had a lot cut off, so I'm welding these super beefy Artec brackets on for the new owner. Artec makes some nice stuff.

When you get a chance make some room in your inbox.

Done. For as little storage as email takes, you'd think they could up the capacity just a bit. I like to file emails that are relevant. The 150 max makes that really hard. Wonder if they have an export feature? Hmm.....

Might even want to just get an air shock if you are carrying a spare. Cheaper and less tuning than a coilover. Will let you run the day at least. Smaller if you are carrying on the jeep too.

I'll look into it. I was just going to look for something used floating around. I'll see what pops up. Thanks for the idea. I'm starting to realize that saving $25 here and $50 there actually adds up to a crap ton by the time a build is done.

Using short circuit saves a lot though. I was going to buy 90/10 or 98/2. Glad I asked. That said, there is something magical about spray arc. I was hooked the first time I saw the cone. I guess 1/2" skids are overkill - I'll have to find another project.

1995-200? Chevy/Dodge 3500 dually are 72" I believe.
