Ok hear me out before you bring on the flame...
Phase I of the build has gone great; I replaced the original lift (2" springs + 2" rubber spacers, no BL) with 2.5" OME + 1.25" BL/1"MML). Still using stock CAs all around, stock driveshaft and slip yoke; NO vibes with either lift. Yes it's an LJ.
That was about 2.5 years ago and I'm very happy with it. BUT.... I'd like to improve ground clearance with a modest tummy tuck, which would also bring the shifter back to the original height.
Does anyone know if I can possibly remain vibe-free if I install something like the UCF Extra Clearance skid, while keeping the driveshaft and control arms stock? There were no vibes for the year I drove it with 4" of lift, and no MML; raising the skid would mean the driveshaft is seeing ~5" of lift, but now with a MML to help.
