You may point the pinion straight at the constant velocity universal
joint on the transfer's end:

Re: t-case lower question
Hi Bill,
What is your definition of "constant velocity u-joints"? I always thought
they consisted of a total of three u-joints per shaft, two of which are
right close together and encapsulated. My Civilian Jeep has simple drive
shafts - two u-joints per shaft, one on each end.

Re: t-case lower question
The scout axle will be much wider than your stock unit. If you use one on
the front (to match the back), the perches would have to be out-boarded from
the frame, or the axle would have to be cut down (then it would be more
narrow than the rear). But yes, you would rotate it so that the pinion is
more direct to the t-case, very common in SOA's.

Re: t-case lower question
Same as yours. I don't know why your Jeep doesn't have them, maybe
they fired the engineers for using the Quadratrac.
