As the title says, I am wanting to build my 72 commando to wheel it. It is on stock springs and axles as it sits now. I want to be able to put some wider axles such as wide tracks in it with low gears. Another option would be wagoneer axles. Since there are not many options for suspensions for commandos, I will be doing a spring over axle conversion as well. This Jeep already has 383 chevy and th400/M20 tc in it. I would like to run 33" to 35" tires. Any input and ideas are appreciated.
 
if you can find a set of axles out of a M1008,chevy military pickup,they are perfect to me.. dana 60 front,14 bolt rear..they already have 4.56 gears and locking rear differential.I run across a set now and then here in south Georgia but don't know about availability in other parts of the country..I have a set under one of my CJ7's
