I bought Savvy linkage before the skids deal and at some point will replace my rusty exhaust from cat back. If I can be patient, I’ll wait a while and do like most with a 2.5 OME and 1”BL. Gonna be tough to wait for a while though...Well I am in the process of doing a 3.5 suspension lift, I will do a tummy tuck also. I am splint between the Barnes 2" or the UCF 1." I put a UCF on my YJ years ago and loved it but I also have 3 inches of body lift to accomodate the steering box relocation that was previously installed. I also put in an Atlas, another excellent mod. Its coming together slowly but a tummy tuck is worth it if you can you can install it yourself. I am not sure if it is worth paying for if you dont need the clearance. It's a major modification that requires driveshafts, shifters, clearancing the tub, etc. I like mine but YMMV. Tim
Double cardan drive shaft and then adjust your control arms.

Looks more like $550-600 for the SYE and rear driveshaft.

And then pick your SYE:

Thank you Igoo,While you're looking at SYE kits, look at JB Conversions. They are very well made and are less expensive that other brands. Then go to Tom Woods and get a double cardan driveshaft separately. It is less expensive to do it that way than buying a packaged kit and you will get a better SYE. I went with the Super Short SYE and drive shaft. I paid roughly $650.

Good luck,

Yeah patience is a tough one for me. I try to do everything myself but if it’s way out of my wheel house or I don’t have all the tools then I’ll hand my money over.Good luck I know how it feels to have all those parts bought and you're itching to install them.
As Igoo65 said JB Conversion make a great SYE.
Doing the SYE isn't hard. It is easier if you do it out of the vehicle. There are 6 nuts that hold the transfer case on and then the shifter linkage. Then it is pretty easy to pull apart. If you feel like laying under the Jeep it can be done with out pulling the transfer case but it makes it a little harder if you haven't ever had one apart. Getting to the upper two nuts to get the transfer case out are the hardest. Watch some video's and see if you feel you can do it.
I'm a mechanic so the first time I did one I did it with the transfer case in the Jeep. I had also found a used JB SYE. Almost all the parts I installed on my TJ back when I first got it were used.
Yes it is part of what is causing the vibrations. You are going to need adjustable upper to be able to set your pinion angle.
