WJ knuckle swap.
useful links ADDED
I have been doing some research on this swap. I was wondering if anyone has DONE this swap? MY main reason for even thinking about it was for the high steer converion as well as doing an OTK swap too.
PLease post up any info you have uncovered.

Here is a link to JCR but it is for a YJ, but most of the axle stuff is the same.

Here is a link to do the over the axle bracket that wil be needed to fix steering angles. I will more then likely make my own though.

Here is a copy of the spacer flange needed. I am going to take a Unit bearing and knuckle down to the local CNC cutter and see if I could get a couple cut. I am almost positive I can get them cut for less local.

Think I gethered enough info for the swap... now time to gather parts. This might take some time as I am laid up with a broken right foot, and a broken right leg. Normally not a big deal, but I have a broken tibial plataue(sp), and I cant put any weight on my leg for another 6 weeks
