There is no kit.

your specks or measurements come from your plumb bob.

What about keeping it original?
How many four wheel drive cars have independant front wheel suspension?
It is one of the features that makes an Eagle an Eagle.

I suggest buying one that already has the solid axles.  Mick here on the forum has one for sale.  I have an SX4 for sale as well (avatar photo)....Rich
