Transfer Case Drop?
I'm wanting to put a 3" lift on my 01 and didn't know if I should put in a transfer case drop or not? Any words of wisdom would be greatly appriciated!!

I didn't install it on my 01 when I lifted to 5.5" +/- I did add a few washers between the rails & cross member until the vibrations went away. I later installed an SYE (great mod!).

Thanks, the kit I'm buying cost an extra $40 with the t-case drop so I didn't know if it would be worth the money to just put it on?

With my old setup I was able to get by with a 3.5" lift and 10-15 deg shims. I had no vibrations and a decent pinion angle this way with no transfer case drop.

Another vote for shims, if you go higher you will need an SYE and Adj. Track Bar and U/L CA's to take care3 of the front. The track bar is needed with any lift really.
