Body Damage is Cool
I think he means converting to a SOA, not replacing the axle.

Well Captain the fact that you asked the question means you need to know a lot more than you do now.. Maybe you should search for "soa" or "spring over" and read up on what you have asked about.

Alright, so I figured out that I need brake cables and an SYE(slip-yolk eliminator) kit. Has anyone done an SOA conversion to a 90's YJ and wanna share pics? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I did some reseacrch and got 2 different sites saying that i'd need a slip-yolk eminator kit, new brake lines, and a new pitman arm (a stock ZJ arm supposidly works well on the YJ) and a track bar relocation bracket. Anyone who's done an SOA conversion wanna verify if that's true?
