I was talking to Todd about buying his axles when he gets back from Alaska but if you want them have at them. He is going to put FJ60 axles under his truck and he is already sprung over. You may want some tougher shackles ant at the same time you will want to replace all your bushings with polyurethane ones and put in greasable spring pins.
As far as using POR on the tub. There is so much prep that goes into that I would not reccomend it unless your tub was off and your junk completely taken apart I would not reccomend it. How about just going after it with a wire bruash on a grinder and having it Rhino lined?
I know what you are going to do with that 40
so Rhino inside and out might be pretty cool!

what is the best place to get bushings and shackles man a fre ,TPI ore some of the other guys?
I got spring over bracket on ebay for front (ruffstuff) 1/2 price
Marius,
I am no expert on the topic, but it was my understanding that the length of your shackles needs to be tied to the springs that you put under the truck. Effectively, the shackles need to be integrated into a balanced design for your suspension package so your springs (axles) articulate as desired. Do you know what springs and lift you are going for yet? If so, that should set the parameters for your shackles. Also, many kits already include shackles of the proper length for the springs so this discussion could be muted by your choice.

stock springs over the axles
Depends on the shackles and springs you are running. SOR has a wide selection and a good break down of what sizes fit what application - and they are not as expensive as everything else they sell
You might just check with Todd when he gets back to find out what shackles he is running on his spring over. I am pretty sure they are longer then stock.
Going big, Marius! The SOA is something that I have never looked at so the 'big dogs' will be better able to advise you when they get back from Alaska. If you are going that tall, there must be a lot more upgrades in the plans for this 40. Axles, tranny and transfer case? Plus lockers undoubtably.

Larry said it. Get with Todd. He may save you a lot of money and time if he sells you his axles
Sounds like you are on the right track though. Does that rig have power steering already? If not you will need the whole highsteer kit too.
