i origanally bought a 79 bronco that was compleatley stripped from all body panels and interior bacically axles frame and body
as you can see here


then i decided to pull the axles out from under the bronco and proceed to strip the stock axles out of my 2001 jeep cherokee seen here

then after the rear axle was pulled the ford 9in was all prepped and ready for instalation





then the rear was all done the pinion angle set


then came the hard part finding out where the ford radius arm mounts go on the unibody frame



we kept running into problems lining the coils straight so it is about as straight it can be right now without wedges under the coil mount




finished steering pictures

the track bar welded up

as i was glancing through your pics it looks like you left the stock lower coil mounts on top of the radius arms? if so that is why your springs look fawked.. they are sitting like / \ because the spring mounts on the axle are wider than those on the cherokee.. but i could be wrong.. any way it looks good..
