SYE/Driveshaft - Best deal?
Hey Everybody,
Going to order a SYE and driveshaft soon, any recommendations as to where to get the best deal (and still quality parts)? Thanks!

I dont' know about the SYE but I know the Front DS will work for the rear also and I haven't heard anyone have problems with that setup. I also know the Grand Cherokee front DS is about an inch longer (if you have more than 4 inches of lift)

So you mean that I could go yank a front driveshaft off one from the junkyard and it will work for the rear? What about having a slip yoke AND slip shaft, does that not cause any problems?

Yes the front DS from an auto XJ will work with a SYE. I am running a PORC SYE with a DS from an auto XJ from the JY.

check this out

it sells you what you need. If you want the reconditioned shaft its there, or you can pull one from a jy. either way its cheap. Im going to be picking that up in a few weeks I hope.

How about a front driveshaft from a Grand Cherokee and SYE, will that work too? I found a really cheap one if it will!

31" sounds a little shorter than i remember but maybe im just mixed up. My buddy used a ZJ front shaft on his and he's had no problems and thats with a 7.5" lift...if that helps

Yeah, I really don't know if it will work or not. By the time I pay for shipping and all that, and buy a non-slip yoke (like the one from ironrockoffroad.com), I'd be in it for about $150 and then still have to replace U-Joints, I think I may just order their package for $200.
