Project SicMonte

I'm doing the 8.5 as follows: Welding the axle tubes, UMI Performance Roto Joint bushings, Moser 30 spline axles, Tru-Trac, Yukon 3.73 ring and pinion, aluminum diff cover, Baer SS4 brakes....not sure about the yoke though.

Thats pretty much how I built mine, except I wanted c-clip eliminators too so went with THIS and different brakes.



I would definitely upgrade the yoke, I think it was only $75 or $100 to go to a steal 1350 yoke instead of the cast 1330 that was on there stock.

Oh one more thing to think about is the lower control arm mounts should be lowered if your ride hight is more than 2" below stock, UMI has nice weld on brackets for it, that's what I'm using. My build thread (link in my signature) is only a couple of pages and has more details if you're interested.
