SYE questions and recommendations

[D M]

Im planning to do a tummy tuck with a 1" M.O.R.E. body lift, 1" JKS Motor Mount Lift, High clearance skid plate and a SYE. Are there any REALLY good/bad ones I should look at? And should I get one that comes with a driveshaft?

Heres what im looking at right now-

Another option to TF is JB Conversions super short slip yoke eliminator. Both will get you a longer drive shaft and eventually a digital speedometer correction box.

Lower drive line angles mean happier u joints.

Thanks but which one would I get, the one w /1310 CV Yoke, non cv yoke, or Rear Output Flange and what is all of that.(sry for asking questions I dont know much about these)

Another vote for jb conversions. Pick up the blue monkey speedo healer too.

Stay with 1310 size and CV yoke. Order your driveshaft thru Tom Wood or find a local shaft builder

CVs mean you need to adjust the pinion angle rear axle. Go with a flange and reg. 2 Ujoint shaft if you prefer to keep pinion where it is. But I'd go CV and get some new double adjust upper control arms.

JB Conversion all the way!

If the intention is to lift and increase suspension travel, then a double cardan (CV) drive shaft is the only viable way to go.

Thus my recommendation.

Yes, you will still need a new driveshaft. After you get the SSYE installed, you can measure for the new driveshaft length. After you have your measurements, give Tom Woods or Adams a call.

So if I install it my jeep will be out of commission until i order the driveshaft?

No, you can still run around in 4hi with the front driveshaft installed. Have you installed a raised skid plate yet? If not, I would wait to order the new driveshaft until you have that installed along with the SSYE.

I have a rough country SYE and its working well so far! I bought it off someone new in the box...

Ah thanks for that info. No I haven't ordered anything yet, I was just wondering because how could I measure for the driveshaft if I don't put it in
