Default shims with a SYE??
I know this is probobly a stupid question. I am doing an Iron Rock Hack & Tap SYE today and am removing the TC drop. Should I assume that the degree shims I put in will no longer be needed as well?? Thanks

You have to shim the rear end so that the driveshaft is pointed directly at t-case output. actually it should about 2 degrees below that to compensate for axle wrap.

This site should help
