It's correct to account for axle wrap like I said. Your problem is elsewhere - possibly bad pinion bearing or ujoint or centering ball in the rear shaft.

 

updated my previous post. still correct?

 

yes.

 

Thanks to you folks here at cherokeeforum, my jeep now rides like a dream! Today I brought it down from around 6-7" to 5" in the rear!

 

Any ideas on where to get a cheap u joint for my rear drive shaft? I'm doing an sye and new rear shaft on Saturday so I don't want to spend much on a ds I'm getting rid of.

 

Advance auto parts sells their brand for like 10 dollars iirc, is it so bad that you can't drive on it for 4 more days?

 

Yeah it busted the one cap off and took a big hunk out of the opposite side.

 

Thinking about getting a RC 3in two series lift now the question is that do I have to have a t-case drop?

 

Only if you get vibes. And if you do, get an sye.

 

Alright thanks do you happen to have a link? and anything else I would need?

 

there is a million and one different SYEs avaliable lol
possibly a longer rear body to axle brake line

 

Are you asking about the parking brake lines and how they becomes too short at about 4-5" of lift. I can't believe this question isn't asked on every page. Apparently the trick is to get longer YJ lines.

 

my stock cables are plenty long at 4.5"...

 

The odd part for me is I thought the lines were OK after I put the lift on. Just this last week I swapped the D35 for a C8.25 with no other changes and now the lines are not long enough. I suppose it could just be how I'm jacking it this time.

 

what are you talking about?
I was answering someone who I quoted.
he asked "is there anything else I might need"

I replied body to axle brake line. and clearly no not the parking break the one that contains brake fluid
