Great to see the photos of the Jeep with the Solid Axle 60s installed and fully Functioning, From where we started on this journey the end result speaks large volumes for the future of Heavy Duty Ultimate Diff Swaps for the JK Jeeps.

The Electronics on the JK provided several challenges in the Install process however with persistance and understanding (most of the time) the end result is one whereby other JK owners will benefit from the Knowledge we know have in Australia of the various problems JK owners may face with there Differentials in the future.

Solid Axle Industries has available in Australia several options for JK owners to upgrade there Diffs both Front and Rear, also Free Wheeling Hub options (Spyntec product) Various ring and Pinion Ratios Front and Rear to suit Diesel or Petrol JK Jeeps.

Contact Danny at Solid Axle Industries on 039 786 0056 to discuss your JK Diff, Spyntec or Ring and Pinion changes or watch for our Australian Website to be completed. (www.solidaxle.com current web site)

Cheers

Danny

why would he need 40s to compensate for 14 mm of ground clearance ?

there is only 14mm difference in clearance between a stock d44 and a solid hpd60 .

They are new design and very different to old D60. The ground clearence is pretty much the same as D44.

Look at the pictures carefully it does have a high steer and the veahicle after 4" lift rides better then before.

Its a LWB JK so really dont need the long arms. If you have a chance to look at the control arms upper and rear they are pretty longer so Long Arm is not really required. If is was a SWB JK I might have considered them but not really needed.

I am pretty fine running 35 bec i have enough ground clearence its not a TRUCK its a jeep.

And why do i need a bumper

My next mods when the funds will permit would be EVO King coil over with King bump stops front and rear and a Hemi.
