It's SYE time... Need some guidance....

(1/2) > >>

submrnman:
So I'm doing a little research on SYEs I'm leaning toward the JB Conversions Kit (http://www.jbconversions.com/products/sye/np231j_std_sye.php), unless one of you guys have a recommendation.

Here is where my questions come in.  
Obviously I'm going to need a longer driveshaft, but how long?  (I'm leaning towards Tom Woods)
What about pinion angles front and rear?  Do I need to adjust?
And is this something I can do in a weekend in the garage? (Daily Driver)
And what exactly do I need to a tummy tuck other than SYE, 1" BL, and tummy tuck skid?
Last, where can I look to find decent pricing for the parts?

Can you tell I have a little money burning a hole in my pocket?  ;D

Not sure about anything else but believe you need a 1" motor mount lift to go with the body lift

moosin:
When I did my SYE I ordered evryhthing from Tom Woods, The SYE was a Tereflex extreme short kit. Everything came together I just told Tom Woods what height lift I was running and what plans were with the drive line (no tummy tuck or drop just stock heights) and he was able to give me proper length drive shaft. As for pinion angle you do have to point it towards the T-case depending on the joints in the drive shaft.

Mr Rock:
If you plan on lifting your rig anymore you will want to wait before install the SE, I like to split the case on a bench but it can be down while still attached to the tranny. and if you do a tummy tuck yes you will need a MML to help with the angles. there is a lot to consider and a bit of planning before starting any work.

submrnman:
I am thinking about going up to 4", and doing a tummy tuck.  I'm a virgin to major driveline changes, so I'm definitely gonna need some advice
