Anyone going to upull anytime soon???

 

Hit up Jr. He and I were just there on Friday, but he seems to always want to go looking for ****. He gave me a hand pulling an axle and forgot to get the rest of the stuff on his list.

 

Hey I find some good stuff you never know who will buy your crap. Plus lately I haven't found anything good for the jeep. I find other things for other people's vehicles. I have everything so far but just haven't installed them. I didn't have anything to get on friday, i went just to see what I found and help someone out.

 

Well ya got any front drive shafts laying around??

 

Yea I got one it's torn apart sitting on my bench waiting to be rebuild.

 

Mine blew up between the upper two ujoints at the ball.

 

Used it as the rear driveshaft?
Since your one of the fellow that has done a sye did you have any vibration, after doing shims and adding the front driveshaft? Or you had nothing and drove fine?

 

The OEM drivetrain when lifted produced quite a bit of vibration. I was informed the vibration would go away with spacers alone. Spacers did nothing. After I installed the SYE and removed the spacers it ran smoother. After measuring angles the driveshaft was nearly perfect. I could either mess around with the rear axle or cut some shorty spacers on the lathe dialing the drive shaft angles dead nuts perfect. Now the jeep has no vibes.

BTW the OEM set up when lifted had the drive shaft inserted less than 3/4" on level ground. If you flexed the suspension I am sure the drive shaft would fall out of the transfer case.

 

I was just about to ask whether it was really worth doing an SYE, as mine is still slip-yoked but drives great. Looks like the rear drive shaft may have been replaced with something longer, but after reading this I will definitely be going SYE!

 

Thanks, Jr. I appreciated the help!

 

I didn't have any vibrations before or after doing the SYE. But my unbalanced tires is another story....

 

For those with Sye's have any of you had to replace your oil seal.
Not sure if I need to open it up or if I can pull it off from outside the tfer case. And I don't remember how it went in when I installed it.

 

Which seal need more pictures and no you can just pop it out with some careful prying.

 

This one. Omix-Ada 18676.62 Oil Seal for Slip Yoke Eliminator Housing https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000FPYF6U..._MMKBub0TXWA9Y

 

Need pictures ofbot b on the sye. My guess it the output seal for the yoke itself correct? Which sye did you get? If you got the RR sometimes they leak and you have to get a deferential seal, but the seal should be already installed with the kit unless it was installed backwards from the factory.
