so i swapped my 8.25 out for a 87 dana44 i got from the jy for $88 last night and now it stinkbugs pretty bad... i don't know what the deal is, i had like 1.5-2" of lift and it sat level before the swap and now it is noticeably higher in the back, i am confused! according to this writeup
http://www.cherokeeforum.com/showthread.php?t=8523 the 8.25 actually has larger tubes and it didn't look like the perches were any higher than the old axle as well. i was thinking maybe my driveline is too long and that is making it bind but i have seen people swap 44s into stock height xjs so i dunno. how much of the slipyoke should i be able to see at ride height?
i also put in new leaf spring bushings but the old ones were not really even worn so i don't think that could have caused it. everything really looks fine so that is why i don't get it and i need your help :worship:
btw its a 93 country 4dr, 1.5-2" of lift from a 1.5" shackle and a cut down main leaf added to the pack
thanks
