I gotcha... Ive had the same question before just never posted... Idk what all there is to do other than a TC drop, but thats only an inch... Ask x91j what is driveshaft looked like at 4.5 inches like how much more his slip yoke had to come out before he went 4WD. Hes pretty knowledgeable about that

 

Ill shoot him a pm. Right now im rapeing google lol.

 

There is a thread somewhere called pics of lifted 2WD's or something to that effect and there was a guy running a 6.5 inch lift but i think he was 4WD with a 2WD front axle idk though... Might have to be a pioneer in this subject haha

 

You mean 4wd with a rear 2wd drive shaft and im still searching but there all 4wd ds questions lol

 

No i think his jeep was 4WD, he got in a wreck, replaced the front axle with a 2wd one for some reason and never put anything back... So idk if he did a SYE or not. Yeah i really dont know what to do other than to find a longer one from something

 

True that man

 

dont think length is going to be the issue as much as angle going to be id order some shims and deff install a tc drop. Does the lift your buying come with shims all ready on rear spring pacs ?

 

A tranny drop kit in my case lol
And no i ordered the iro 6.5 kit and i dont belive they are pre shimed

 

Nope not shimmed http://www.ironrockoffroad.com/Merch...egory_Code=PFX

 

yay its called a tc drop should be same crossmember as 4wd i have never paid attention to a 2wd set but your never gonna find a tranny drop kit ...i would order shims then ...are you planning on converting to 4wd or leaving 2wd?

 

4wd soon and i can use a tc drop kit it works both ways. And gotcha id ask which degree but thats a lil hard to say.

 

He was joking when he called it a tranny drop lol but how many degrees would he need? its unsafe after a point right?

 

Past 8 degrees isnt safe

 

Thats what i thought. sounds like its time to measure

 

look at link it does come with drop shackles that will pitch the rear yoke up some .Are you sure the 2wd crossmember mounts in same location as 4wd if not long arms with new crossmember wont be in same location as crossmember is now to mount tranny back.
