Looking to do the classic SYE upgrade, probably an Advance Adapters SYE paired with a Tom Wood's on my 2001 sport with a 2.5" suspension lift. I have a pair of Core 4x4 T2 rear upper control arms on the way. I have read I also probably need rear lower adjustable control arms, right?
It seems the consensus has evolved to suggest that is the case.
Then, my big worry is in ordering the right driveshaft length from Tom Wood. Is there enough tolerance in length for the usual pinion angle adjustment as well as slight wheelbase adjustment (if I opt for lower control arms)?
What if I eventually upgrade to a 3" lift?
There seems to be an estimator on their website for measuring "stock" setups (SY) without having to install the SYE first, measure, then order. Am I worrying too much about the length at play in different scenarios?
For what it's worth, my intended use for the Jeep is just "light" trails on the ranch. Thanks guys!
