Thanks OOP'S, I was hoping you would chime in. What kind of grease should I use? Best place to get it?

I use a Extreme Pressure, Moly-Graph, GP Grease made by Sta-Lube seems to work. I do not have Birfields I have an eliminator kit hhat was built by RedLine, D-44 Warn alloy axles with Spicer 670X u-joints but I used the same grease when I did have Birfields!!!! Don't forget to put some grease on the lip of the axle seal before you put the axles in!!!!

Body Damage is Cool

once you go to IFS calipers your wheels may hit them. Wheel spacers may be needed. I am only running 1/4" on mine with minimal grinding on the caliper.

after doing this whole thing about 6 months ago i can tell you best advice, go generously on the moly grease. Really pack that crap in there. Oh and some other things of note would be a case of that dollar store orange oven cleaner so you can clean up the outside of the knuckle etc. Bolts go back on much better when they are clean!!!
