Kent, why waste time converting a D20 to a D18, just buy the nose piece and convert your existing D18 to a twin stick. Here is a shop in Oregon that does lots of D18 stuff. R&P 4WD Parts, Inc. My dad met the guys and said they do lots of cool stuff. Or check with Herm, he might have what you want.
I know, supposedly the D20 is stronger, but you will have to have it milled to accept the D18 gears.
I haven't talked with anyone that is running the Holbrook long leafs. I did call them directly and talk with one of the guys. They are a bolt in for our Jeeps. They are manufacturing a 1 3/4 spring for our Jeeps. Just have to measure and then weld up the new spring hangers on the frame. About 2.5-3" of lift, lots of flex and a smoother ride. Maybe I will have to get a set and tell you about them. :t: I don't want much more lift than 2.5-3" I will run longer bumpstops and limit uptravel, to keep my Center of Gravity lower. I'll have to take some more pics of the P.O.S. and post them.
Post some pics of yours. :t:
