^^^ Yes. We have been doing this in the short wheelbase Jeeps for a while. I just didn't know with the XJ having a longer wheelbase what a 1" motor mount lift would do.

Thats what I plan on getting soon till then I hope to have no vibes with about 4.5in lift but we will see.

 

just get the sye and be done. its a good investment and itll make your jeep more reliable

 

Ya I plan on it cuz my driveshaft is at a steep angle which I dont like but itll be fixed soon I hope

 

you can use the front shaft with approx 4-5 inches of lift, although you will have to do the sye, the front shaft has a slip shaft already so you would have the change to a fixed yoke set up on your t case output,dropping the transfer case is fine but again you are losing some ground clearance, i prefer to have as musch tucked up out of the way as possible

 

Same here dont want anything lower then normal cuz it just another thing to get hung up on. Think I mite try to put together a boneyard SYE. If I do Ill do a write up for yall. Which reminds me I gotta do a write up of my rebuild any how lol.
