I am starting to look into a SYE kit and have been curious on how hard it is to install one. Are there any companies that stand out, but will not break the bank? This is mostly a street driven Jeep, but I plan on wheeling it on the weekends and do not want anything to break on me.

99' XJ
AW4 (or whatever the stock auto trans is)
NP231 t-case
Need any more info, just ask!
Thanks for the help!

Advanced Adapters is what I run. No complaints, I installed it with the t case in the vehicle wasn't much fun but wasn't that hard, I think it took me like 4 hours. There are lots of write ups and info on them, just search.

I've done several Rugged Ridge kits with no complaints. I have one in my XJ and in the shops along with several others. I've done them in and on the bench. There is +/- to both ways.

I'm getting ready to do one too, what are some of the drawbacks of installing in the vehicle, any major issues or snags?

Read the instructions, have the proper snap ring pliers handy because without them you may never even get the tail cone off. If you do it in the Jeep, have a extra set of hands handy.

Thanks for the input! I guess that I will search around on Google and see If i can find a good write-up, unless anyone has a good one on here that they can post a link to?
Thanks!
