Default Transfer Case drop

With my 2'' lift came some drivetrain vibration. Do I need to buy a kit or can I just add washers or something. How much does it need to drop?

Thanks

U can fab your own drop, prob need less than an inch, I'm using a 1" drop for a 3.5" lift. Try 1/2 or 3/4 of an inch.
Good luck!
