Default K44 swap on TF2 SWB

K44 swap. I was going to get CVDs for the Yota II axles, but for another $20 you can get K44s left pumpkin with CVDs which is accurate for a Jeep.

I did not realize it at he time, but the shock mounts sit lower on the K44 axle. This allowed me to use longer shocks up front as well.

Next is to flip the hubs so I can still run behind the axle steering.

Why move the steering? Real Jeeps have the steering rod in the front of the axle.

I did the same thing with the K44 swap to work for my early Bronco build. I linked the front and created separate shock and spring set up to resemble the Bronco suspension.

I know they are setup like that, I was going to try it, but no room to make it work.
