I have been searching the forums and have found some info but nothing concrete, so I thought I would just ask here.
Specs.
96 XJ
4.0
NP231 (with rubber boot on slip yoke, have heard the boot makes a differenct for some reason).
AW4 (about a week old on fresh rebuild)
D30 front
Chyrco 8.25 rear.
3.55's
factory springs WAY shot and sagging.
Parts going in
Rustys 3" lift with new springs and shocks
TC drop kit if needed or recommended
Kevins off-road tracbar conversion
OME steering stablizer.
Rear brake line
any recommedation on LCAs if any for 3"?
Trimming fenders
32x11.50s
Would you recommend shims on rear axle for 3" lift?
Ok, I have a Rustys 3" kit on the way cause my facoty springs are shot to hell and the Pass Rear spring is in a negative arch bad. I know that its a crap shoot of wether or not i will have DS vibrations or not. But if it does happen I want to fix it.
I have been reading on about the RE hack & tap kit. Does anyone have the exact part number i would need. Alot of people have been using a Front driveshaft out of a automatic XJ, are there any specifics on that either.
I had two guys from two different shops in the Phoenix valley tell me that the 231 TC with the boot on it will more then likely give me vibrations.
I am not new to wheelin' just new to XJs and Slip yokes. I had a CJ7 that was built the TC was a D300 and BDS lift etc, etc. This Driveline is just kinda new to me.
I dont intend to do much Hardcore stuff, this is being built more for safari.
Thanks
