Tcase/front driveshaft issue??
I have had to replace all 3 u joints in the front driveshaft along with the ball kit in the H-Yoke. About a month later the horrible noise came back... a loud roaring noise underneath me... took the driveshaft back out and the whole cv in the double cardan this time.... something happened to cause the driveshaft to eat the cv yoke... I replaced it... and it sounds like the roaring is coming back... can someone help me and tell me what keeps eating my cv in the driveshaft?

Do you have a lift kit?
It is always my first thought for drivetrain issues.. It messes up the geometry of the drive-train. I had a vibration on my xj as well after 3.5" lift. Transfer case dropped via skyjacker kit (sold in some auto stores locally). Fixed the issue.. smooth and quiet again. However, I would not have described my noise as a roar..

Don't know.... not the owner who had lift installed... it doesn't say it in the receipts.... if there is any type of spacer between the cross member and frame then it was dropped, correct?

The reason I ask is sinply because I want to see the angles. See if its bad, how bad ad let you know how well fix it. Also wat kind of u joints did you install?
