A YJ with an LS on Coilovers & Spidertrax Axles

Advanced Adapters reached out Friday afternoon, my Atlas is on schedule to be built next week.

I should have it in hand the second week in September. However, I’ll be in training for 6 weeks starting the first week of September, so the YJ build is on pause again while I focus these next few weeks on training.

I read through every entry on your post. Magnificent build. I am also swapping a 6.0 LS and 4L80e in my YJ. Can you tell us about the drivetrain build?
 
Back from training and got some new parts in the garage.

The Atlas has been unpacked and looks amazing.
4.3:1 and driver side drop. Short rear output.


Having the transfercase was the final piece in the puzzle for starting the power train swap.

Got the front axle finally done and back in the garage.

- Spidertrax pro series 4130 chromoly 3.5” housing
- Reid Racing 3.5” Super Kingpin Inner knuckles (C’s)
- Reid Racing Super Kingpin outer knuckles
- Driver drop
- 69.5” WMS
- 79 Ford Dana 60 Specs

Couldnt stand the orange paint that Reid’s come with, so painted them black.

Will utilize 05-12 factory Ford Superduty brake calipers and rotors, 8x6.5 unit bearings, locking hub, and a 1480 or 1550 u-joint.
