So there is so many kinds of SYE out there. i not sure is i should get the mega short or just HD one. So whats the best NP231 slip yoke eliminator for the money.

I was looking at this SYE from Advance Adapters

93XJLI

whatever is cheapest. theyre all 99% the same. you dont need the super short on a XJ.

ok thanks

is there a driveshaft i can use from another truck. like a ranger short bed or an amc eagle. or maybe a the front drive shaft from a cherokee

Look at the unit from JB Conversions. Around $220 shipped and it comes with a high clearance yoke.

I have a PORC Sye(spitting image of the Advanced Adapter one) and use the frt driveshaft as a rear driveshaft. Thus i need to only carry 1 spare drive shaft instead of 2 different one.

yeah thanks i was thinking that. the shaft looked like it would work. thanks. now i know

i am ordering the advanced adaptors

I like this!
...Nice find...


Couldnt you also just get a rear drive shaft that has a slip-shaft in it?

I know it'd probably be more $$$, but Im just curious?....

With enough cash, you can do anything.

Using a front shaft in the rear isn't the strongest setup, but it's what I'm going to do. As was mentioned, you only need one spare, and replacements are boneyard cheap. If I was doing a V8 swap or something like that I'd run a Tom Woods or the like, but I can use that money for something else.

I'm looking at the JB Conversion kit for my np231 and I have a couple questions ( I'm fairly new the the Jeep thing):

1) I need the regular kit with the CV yoke right? There is the option to order a "non-cv yoke" which I gather is not necessary?

2) Does the new housing come with new seals etc?

3) The only thing missing from the kit is a bone-yard front drive shaft?

I have my tranny out right now (doing the clutch) so I figured I should do this at the same time.

Thanks!

Advanced Adapter makes basically all of the current SYE's on the market for all others..

The super short kits are more for when you put a low range box in-between the tranny and the t-case, just to keep your driveshaft angle from being to extreme.

At first I was annoyed that you posted this because it didn't answer my question ... then I went to Advance Adapter's site and noticed they had their sye on sale for $199... then I realized their shipping was $10 to Canadian addresses (much less than what JB Conversions charges for shipping).. and I was sold. Just ordered one. Thanks duuude!
