    Questions regarding NV3550 and 241OR swap into 97 SE

    So I'm in the process of doing a transmission swap on my 97 SE. I'm going to the NV3550 with the NV341OR but for now I'm keeping my stock axels. Can I use the driveshafts from the Rubi that pair with the NV341OR or will I need to order something special from Adams or elsewhere? If I remember...

    What driveshaft and flange is this?

    Hoping someone can help out here. I bought a new Adams rear driveshaft for my 2003 rubicon and found my flange is a bit different from most options I could find online. All holes on the flange are NOT threaded and the holes on my drive shaft are threaded. Anyone seen this before?

    JB Conversions NP231 SS SYE. Anyone running this beauty?

    I have heard nothing but good things about JB conversions. Noticed they offer a super short SYE that looks outstanding which allows for an even longer driveshaft. Having a longer driveshaft is far less likely to have have vibrations due less angle to reach the rear axle. It should also have...

    Front Driveshaft Overhaul

    Front driveshaft u-joint part number?

    I understand that my 05 Rubicon uses a 1330 u-joint on the front driveshaft, is that correct? If so, what is the spicer part number for a replacement u-joint? Preferably an upgraded one if possible. 5-760X, or will that not fit?

    Removing front springs

    Last time I removed the springs I used spring compressors. This time I am installing my Currie 4" lift and decided I'd rather avoid spring compressors and just get the springs out by lowering the axle. Well, it seems that even with everything disconnected the only way to get the axle to drop...

    Is a double cardan driveshaft a true CV joint?

    I'm not sure if the title explains what I am trying to figure out, but why is it that a double cardan driveshaft is sometimes referred to as a 'CV' driveshaft? I was under the impression that a CV driveshaft was similar to the type of CV joint found on say an RCV axle or most modern day...
