Which SYE Kit to get?
So everyone and their brother sells an SYE kit. Theres SYE kits, HD Kits, Short HD, Super Short, Mega Short, and the list goes on. Someone clarify the differences between these kits and what manufacturer I should look towards.
Thanks
Jon

The shortness is the length of the output shaft. And HD is just heavy duty. The output shaft will usually be harder than normal. If you just buy the normal length non HD version of any brand, itll live the life of your jeep without any problem.

Thanks for the responses. The Serious Offroad only run 180, so I might go with that. Iron Rock has the "HD" version for 199 though.
One thing I noticed while looking around, some kits include a speed senor? And from a glance the two Ive mentioned dont include one nor mention anything of a sensor? Can anyone shed some light onto this?

Yea I looked into HNT though the price difference is appealing, I feel like when it comes to main components(ie the driveline) its best to not cheap out and just do it properly the first time.
Anyone have anything on my "speedsenor" question?

A H&T is true SYE. It is simply an alternative to a short shaft kit.
