Hey guys,

Well im happy to say i jus put on my 4.4 lift whhhooooooohhhhoooooooo
haha ill post pics up tomorrow. promise.

but my question is i put the t case drop kit and im getting no vibes watsover so i was so happy. So i took it for alignment and the guy asked what i was gonna do with my drive shaft.
You can see bout inch and a half to 2 of cleanness where the shaft use to be and is now extended.
He suggested besides the sye(which i knew), i can extend my driveshaft but thatll cost me 350
Could i put another longer driveshaft? I think i read from here that automatics have longer ones. not too sure.
Can someone shinesome light on me if its possible and if it is what kind of xj, specs.

Thanks in advance

 

You could get a longer yoke from rustys offroad, and around here it costs 50 dollars for them to lengthen or shorten a ds and 50 to balance

 

wow thats pretty good from rustys, ill call tomorrow to see how long it is exactly.
Damn thats pretty cheap for the extension. i think the guy jus wanted me to buy from him. gotta go price shopping

 

yeah and if you want a sye they are 182 shipped from PORC

 

Yeah but i would need a bigger cv driveshaft.

 

You can use your front ds

 

someone correct me if i'm wrong, but on my 92 cherokee i have 6.5 inches of lift, and i put an sye in and used a front driveshaft from a 94 cherokee.

 

yeah as long as its from an automatic

 

Does it matter if it's d35 or 8.25 rear?

 

So do you need the sye still if you get the longer drive shaft. Just curious I ordered a 4.5" lift for my 01 so I dont know if i need to just get the sye or the ds or both

 

Yes it does matter.

8.25 will make your life easier

 

ok were talkin bout the front one putting it in the rear?
Cuz mine is standard. so automatics have longer ones.
Ok correct me here.
I get the front drive shaft of an automatic put the sye with the front ds and should extend enough to work?

Tell me if im on the right track

 

it should work but you still might need to get the front ds lengthened

 

there is a guy in guymon ok that will lengthen and balance and also put in new u-joint for 110. a buddy of mine is havin him do his right now when he gets it back if everything goes well ill get his info and post it

just found out it is $12 a foot for the materials to lengthen it but labor is included in the 110
