One thing I would like to point out is if you're dealing with extreme driveline angle while using a cardan joint, you want to check and make sure it doesn't bind up or rub during rotation, it will eat up transfercases. I learned the hard way on a 04dodge Cummins.

Great tips on install and absolutely perfect and fitting name for the channel

Taking my 1995 Jeep Cherokee XJ2 door to the local jeep place in town to look at getting a extended driveshaft and yolk slip eliminator put in these guys are talking may be a $900 price tag for parts and labor. Super awesome guys!!!

That answered all of my questions regarding my driveshaft. Thank you!

I just subscribed. I bought a 95 xj recently. Soon discovered all it's issues like leaks , vibration when in 4 wheel. So I started replacing everything from the drive line components to ball & u-joints. So I watch alot of your videos before tackling anything myself. Hopefully I win this give away . Would really help . Thanks Phil .

My 2004 Quadra Trac V8 already has the cardin driveshaft. I believe it's stock.Parts dealer says it has 3 driveshaft and 6 universal joints, 2 costs 1$ more than the other 4.I bought 1 but since I have it off will replace both.

What is the minimum clearance on the slip portion of the driveshaft. I just did this install and only have 3/4” gap at ride height.

The shaft pooped on your forehead Matt. 🤣

Hey matt i have being a subscriber of RC TV ever since you started with RC's products... Im putting some money away to buy their stinger winch bumper for my XJ i love the clean look it gives to it.

Is there suppose to be a small hole on the front of the driveshaft where it mounts to differential and behind the u joint. When I slide it up and down grease comes out of the hole.

My '68 t-bird came with this (factory) on BOTH ends. I was wondering, doesn't all this extra weight rob performance? There's no extreme angle in the car of course, they just did this back in the day for increased ride comfort, right, just to make things as smooth as they can get it but in such a large heavy car, there's no way I'd ever notice if a normal driveshaft were installed. My question is, doesn't it make sense to have a normal driveshaft installed to ditch some weight and rotating mass, since it was overkill, back when gas was dirt cheap?

How's everyone feel about those hack n tap SYE kits? Seems like a reasonable install but wonder how they hold up.

Just subscribed to rough country, good video. I have a drive shaft with a SYE but I just wanted to watch for the double u joints. I've gotta replace mine soon and I'm watching all your videos on those. That's a nasty gash on your head there. Lol

Good info.. I've got a 1983 Toyota Corolla Wagon that came from the factory with a 2 piece driveshaft and center carrier baring... Thing is I've raised the rear of the car with an extra main leaf spring added to the leaf pack ... I removed the eyelets form the extra main leaf befor adding it to the leaf pack ... Thing is now I'm having driveline vibration , and was wanting to know if the double cardon joint could be added to the rear shaft and if that would eliminate the Viberation ? Any info would be greatly appreciated .. Thanks ...

Great vids! I'm putting a 4 in long arm lift in my '05 Rubi TJ. Also going with a similar drive shaft, so do I have to worry about pinion angles? Seems like you just slapped this baby in there.

Matt, I think you might be at least 95% of the reason I'm capable of working on my own 99 xj. Please keep doing what you're doing! Also I just subscribed to rough country. ALSO also I have a question. I will be replacing my rear drive shaft soon and my TC needs to be pulled apart and resealed. Since ill be down there is there any reason I should consider an SYE if I'm going with an OME 2" lift in the future? I know it isn't necessary but I'm curious what you have to say.

Thanks for the video. Very helpful install. Just to be clear, can you take measurements if you haven't installed the slip yoke eliminator? I currently still have stock gear and am trying to figure out how to provide a brand with the proper measurement. My stock rear drive shaft measured out to be 27 3/4".

Does it need a dust boot?

Love the videos! I've learned a lot and laughed often. I'm a subscriber, and just subscribed at RC too! Thanks.

I took off my drive shaft when I rebuilt my 4.0, and when I put it back on, it became very loose where the slip yoke is. Now it makes a clunk noise every time take off and goes away within about 2 seconds. I have the same driveshaft as the one installed in this video. Any ideas on what could be the problem? Or if it can be just serviced or I just have to replace it completely? It didn't make any noise before the engine rebuilt. I put grease in it, also replaced bad u-joints and still making the clunk noise.

Is it true you can use a front drive shaft instead of a custom one with your sye at 3.5 inch lift

Hi, do you have a video on how to make a conversion from cv joint to U joint in the front axles for a ZJ 1993? Thanks

I'm curious to know if there is a double cardan conversion kit for a stock 1977 cj5? I've looked around but haven't come across one specifically for them. Possibly overlooking them..?

Where did you get drive shaft from

Does this shaft use regular u joints or do I need to order special u joints for it? About to pull one out of an XJ at the junkyard

Does it matter whether you measure on the lower yoke bolt holes or the upper?

I subscribed to rough country

So I have a question I'm thinking of installing a 4.5 inch lift and would like to know if I have to install a t case drop because I was just gonna do an sye and dont want to do a drop aswell

Hi, I have a off topic question regarding a 96 ZJ 5.2. I want to replace my transmission lines from the transmission to the cooler, I already have factory [ebay] replacement lines and see that the trans. side has the so-called quick disconnect fittings but they aren't the same as say the fuel filter as they don't compress though there are tabs, the plastic is 360 degrees so I can see how it would compress like the fuel filter. I am replacing due to rust but not leaking yet. I think I could try to turn the fitting where the quick disc. and line live but I still would need to get the plastic fitting out for reassembly Any ideas?

Where is the balancing weight on that shaft? Mine doesn't have one and its custom.

Do I need to upgrade my driveshaft for a 2.5 lift?

Just replaced the rear axle from a dana 35 to an chrysler 8.25. At exactly 36 to 38 mph I feel a little vibration. As if something is not in a harmonic state. Below or after that it's fine. Any thoughts. I have not retightened the ubolts yet, going to tom, maybe that's it.

@bleepinjeep

9 жыл бұрын

SuperDagod1 dunno, did you put the driveshaft back the way it was? is the length correct? was the 8.25 good to begin with?

Great one Matt, subscribed RC

Is there a solution on the rear drive shaft to fix the drive shaft angle on a 4" lift (mine) without going to a SYE? A different type of drive shaft that can bolt right on to the stock set up? At the moment I have vibration. Under the new lift springs, there is a 1/4 inch wedge tipping my axle forward. The rear input and drive shaft are in a perfect line which I realize they should not. To push that down and fwd so it is flat just like the the output from the transfer case, I need a much larger wedge put in there I would assume. Perhaps that is the fix? Looking to keep costs down as I do not have tools or space to do this myself and cost from a shop is well over a thousand dollars.

Unfortunately the SYE kit is the best solution for jeeps over 3” look into the hack and tap kits and a good junk yard front shaft for the rear

Exactly how I installed mine and still get vibrations.

That would be my guess, I have a video on removing it and one on rebuilding it.

One question, I have a 3.5 inch lift SYE on the jeep when I bought it, it also has a transfer case drop, should it have the t case drop if it has this set up, I get vibration at around 70 km
