Axel Wrap

I did a spring over on my Jeep Wrangler using Dana 44s from an 0lder F150. The angel of my rear drive line was so sever that I had to reweld my spring perches so the driveline pointed up 21.5 degrees so the U-joints would be parallel. I also had to put an anti-axel wrap bar from my rear diff to a crossmember I built, because when you hit the gas the rear axel tends to rise which is called Axel Wrap. With out it I would go through U-joints in a very short time. If I can find the link explaining it better I'll post it. Hopes this help .
