Drop the Transfer case half an inch, Ive seen driveline noise/vibrations with as little as one inches of lift. its really easy to do the TC drop and can use almost anything. i used PU bushings on mine. A few thick washers will work just fine. dont go any more than an inch cause your fan will get into the rad. Hope this helps.

When U drop your mount.Do 1 side at a time.Unbolt 1 side put long bolts in,then the other the same...By the way you will have 2 studs to remove and 2 bolt have a stud remover handy......

Not if you re-use the studs and use square tubing for the drop.

Thanks for the help guys . Just finished up all the tie rods and new steering stabilizer, what a difference . With the new lift on it has strained the already tired leaf springs. Does anybody out there have a set there not using ?
