This is probably going to sound odd...but I have a 2000XJ(not that part)
I have a RE3.5" lift, shocks...tires all that mumbo jumbo waiting to go on. Also got a sye for it too, and plan to use an XJ front shaft.
Now...where I have a chance to install my lift, I dont think i'd have enough time to do the SYE there also, or just would not like to to tie up the shop...
Question is....would the SYE/XJ shaft work while it was still stock? Install it, then head to the shop to do the lift...
or does anyone suppose a 25km drive would do any damage to anything without the SYE until I got home? I understand the vibes and u-joint troubles that will happen, but...with a new 3.5" RE lift, I've read it nets roughly 5.5" when new. Is that going to pop the driveshaft out or anything at that height?
I know this is dumb, but I'm trying to organize the day so that i'm the smallest PITA i can be...
thanks
ps. when I say 'stock' I mean ridiculously sagged rear springs...
