Still peicing things together here. Bought the RE 3.5"SR, along with monotubes. I know all about SYEs, as I have vibes and its still stock. Planning on the PORC. Just have a few questions while still gathering.
Simple ones...
A 2000 XJ (AW4, 231, 8.25")...
With a PORC SYE...an XJ(AW4, 231) front driveshaft, needs no modification to work with a 3.5" lift?
With a RE 3.5", will it need any shims for the back axle to re-align pinion angle?
And one TOUGHY!!! (Kinda two...)
I've been reading about the SYE, and I kind of feel something is left out. Once you pop the back half of the case off, the main shaft just...pulls out? (Once the chain is off of course :sunshine: ) The front end rests in a bearing or something I assume? Also...My XJ has 179,000KM on it, should I replace the chain while I'm in there?
woot all help appreciated of course...thanks!
