    The wheels are still on as I’m rolling the frame around on them...but I get about 57 3/8” outside brake drum to outside Brake drum.

    That project sort of got put on the back burner until the rest of it is back on the road. At the present time, the housing is cleaned/painted and the ARB/gears-inner seals (Seals-it) installed. All the remaining parts are ready for assembly but I have not ordered axle shafts as yet. Dutchman will be making the shafts, their 4130 versions. To fit this centered in a CJ, the right side spring perch is about a half inch into the cast iron housing. Sort of a pain in the butt with a U-bolt flip.
