Default Sye question

I know my questions answer is here somewhere but, I'm driving. Lol. I can type without looking. Searching would be dangerous. So that's why I didn't search.

Question.
Can the front xj driveshsft be used on a full sye. I know its ok on hack and tap, but what about the full sye?

Isn't much difference between a HnT and traditional SYE.

There are also a few different lengths of front shafts.

As a precaution I'd measure just to be safe.

HnT is the same for both 231 and 242 in most cases.

Yep. Only difference I found was if you needed the seal flange. Early 231s needed them.

I like the HnT because if you ever nuke the internals of your tcase you *could* ruin that SYE.

With a HnT you should be able to reuse the HnT on any new case.

Meh I think thats a good point but I don't think it practical. The SYE can handle what roughly 50% more torque and is definitely stronger

I never really thought about that benefit of the HnT. That pretty much makes my mind up completely.
