AX-15 Guys with HnT or SYE What drive shaft?
 
What drive shafts are you guys using. I have a 8.25 rear.

I want to go up another inch or 2 and was looking to get the IRO HnT

But not sure which drive shaft to go with. What are you guys using? Looking for a stock solution. Not sure the front shaft would be long enough or if i should look for a zj front shaft?

i would also like to know this. the lengths are different for the ax15 guys and aw4.

Well the AX15 is about 2" shorter than the AW4. Best method is to install the Hnt then measure the distance to find a suitable length driveshaft or get one made.

AX15 and AW4 are 1.41" difference with the drive shaft lengths. I posted this in another thread but I'll post it here if it'll help. If you're looking at keeping with a stock front drive shaft for the rear, install the SYE and measure the distance then hit the junkyard.

Are those numbers for collapsed length? Or extended?

Garvin 05-05-2011 05:14 PM

I'm assuming they are collapsed length as the static ride height of this '88 Wagoneer (4.0L, AW4, NP242) with a 1.5" or 2" BB is about 33" from both outside u-joints.
