Any recommended local frame shops?
Have the Jeep stripped down after a recent crash. There is no insurance to help pay for repairs (was liability only & accident was classified as a no fault). Found the unibody has minor offset in the uni body all infront of the motor mounts. As is the Jeep is not drivable without a radiator or front cross member. I can take a few detailed pics of the frame if it would help. Neighbor is now retired and was in the insurance business a while back. He was thinking it would be an easy fix which is good news.

2 inch and vibs already I'm at 3 and no vibs. Its possible from that transfer case yoke since its a extended shaft. Or could possible be the front driveshaft. Yours is a 99 right? I think they came with the low pinion dana 30.

I have a 98, 00-01 have the low pinion. From what i've read on forums, 97+ XJ have a greater risk of getting vibe when doing lifts.

It's true 97+ get vibes from even a small lift its cause of the change in design of the sy. I had a 91 with 3.5 lift an no vibes but just lifted my 97 n I get vibes
