    I have upgraded my 91 DB51 with front and rear ends from a 95 DD
    Got it all Fabbed up and it works!
    But the right side half shaft keeps poping out.
    It did Not have a clip so I replaced it and it was tough to get in, but now has walked back out!

    Why? LOL any ideas please.

    I would check axel length DB v. DD with cv ends on might be a little bit different

    I am using the DD shafts
    DD pumpkin
    DD Hubs, shocks, brakes etc
    I had to reuse my DB tie rod ends but with the DD shafts
    For some reason it walks out?

    It might be the lower arm/ball joints. Replace mine,there are different ones mine was
    FAR/FAL. They have slightly different shapes.

    Overall the entire front end is now the DD
    Only thing that is from the DB is the Pitman arm and the rack
    For some reason the long shaft (right side) keeps walking out about 3/4"

    I went back in and although still out
    I could not get it o come OUT!
    So weird or what?

    Also found that I had to heat and reshape My DB pitman arm to make it work
    The Pitman Lever itself fit fine just relocated where the arm lined up
