Default sye?

I have a 95xj 4.5 lift with the and im looking for the cheapest way to put an sye on it. I was thinking about hackNtap, but i have the 242 so i need the seal flange, and somebody told me i would have to use a custom drive shaft instead of a stock front shaft. Is that true? What is the cheapest way for me to do this?

Good luck with a HackNtap, I've heard nightmares about that. If your just trying to get rid of some vibration, Do a T-case drop... cheaper and easier in the end.

theres no way you paid $409.00 for a hack n tap.

to the op the iron rock offroad HnT is a great value.

It will hold up fine, just make sure you follow the directions and cut the shaft while it's spinning.

I'm pretty sure anyway that with a 242 the only thing you can do is a HnT.

maybe someone else will chim in.
