    I know Im cross posting this but whatever..

    Hey guys I was gonna start in on my 30 build and had a quick question. Since most of you have the parts on hand will the zj tie rod and dl fit the wj knuckle taoper properly?

    Basically Im looking to install the WJ knuckles now and use my current inverted y steering. Later I'll flip it up top and move the tb mount but for right now I'd like to have the benefit of the bigger brakes. Also if someone could set their old steering on and see if it clears the diff cover etc that would be super awesome... Thanks.

    Yea it works fine. I ran mine like this for a long time before going flipped WJ steering. Obviously, your toe is going to be fucked, and once adjusted you at about the end of what I would consider a "safe" amount of TRE thread engaugement.
