If you are close to where you think you are going to end up, just order it. If you go up or down 1", its not going to make much of a difference on length. Have you shimmed it yet? I think the shims made a bigger difference then 1" of ride height for me.

Why are you looking for a driveshaft then? What's to dial in?

Alright, I will give you that one. Kids are slightly time consuming. I am trying to finish all my projects before kids happen!

Yep, finish ‘em. When they come, they are your project.

Headed down to Jeep'n the Coast yesterday. Huge disappointment! Only saw one other cherokee. Bunch of soccer moms with their JKUs and mall crawlers. Saw one giant CJ too.

Got her runnin' again. Don't know for how long though because the parts stores didn't have the correct o-ring size for the FPR.... and it looks like they don't sell proper o-ring sizes separately from the FPR
