I am currently swapping a SJ front D44 into my YJ. I am having a problem with the diff housing clearance for the ubolts. I have seen the tech section on swapping a sj 44 but the explaination on diff clearance was a little vague. It looks like the spring pack will fit with no problems moved over 1/2 inch. However the spring retaining plate and ubolts are another problem. It appears that the ubolt will overlap a few of the diff cover bolts. Is this normal? Also do you need to notch the spring plate to fit around the diff?
