You don't have to open anything with a hack-n-tap.

I don't like H-n-T's but for the not as technically inclined they work fine.

 

How do they work?

 

Hnt scare me...... Lol but I can install a normal sye in 30 min....

 

Now would a front shaft work with a hack n tap on a np242?

 

Chop off half the output shaft, drill a hole, tap the hole and bolt the new yoke on.

I don't like them either. I wouldn't say they scare me but I'd MUCH rather a full SYE kit and that's what I have. Advance Adapters SYE.

 

I think so. Never dealt with a 242.

 

The fine thread 8-10 mm bolt holding it together scares me.

 

But there's no full sye for the 242 yet now is there?

 

You can use what ever bolt you want...

 

Ya ill be doing a full sye. Hackntaps arent something id wanna do. I guess ill look into doing this and a jy driveshaft. I know the guys at 4wheelparts here in portland told me it'd be $1100 for the sye and shaft and installation. So after that i decided on a 3 inch lift

 

The install isn't difficult. You don't even have to remove the t-case. 1 hour tops, laying on your back on the ground with a wrench and snap ring pliers.

You can do it for free.

 

Or you can talk to me... The guy who worked at the portland 4wp...... The guy who builds jeeps on the side..... Lol

 

I feel like this should all be done before installing a lift. But don't you have to do it after, or atleast your supposed to do it after the lift?

 

Yes there is, I got mine from Tom Woods. Not cheap in price or quality.

 

Really? The guys at 4wp were not the nicest imo. Id rather not deal with them again.
