I just recently finished my 94 build with an FJ80 front axle using the FROR knuckles. While the quality is top notch, we did run into clearance issues with the leaf springs. I used a full width spring hanger from Sky's to help with the passenger side leaf spring perch, but it was still a pain to package everything. The guy that did the SAS measured his Hellfire knuckles and they were an inch taller so it might save you quite a bit of time and fab work to look at going with those over the FROR.

Thanks… I have been on the fence about ordering the hellfire knuckles. I will start mocking the suspension up here soon ( as time allows)
 
Following as I may be going back to a 3rd/4th gen pickup for a 40s with tons build for my next project as my GX is nearing the point where I can do much more with serious tubbing.
