CV Driveshaft and SYE for $350 including shipping!!!
« on: October 21, 2008, 04:52:43 AM »
I've been looking to upgrade my YJ for a while now, but wanted to do it on the cheap side.  Last week I found a brand new Tom Woods Crive shaft on jeepforum.com and with shipping it was only $185.  Tonight I found a HD SYE on ebay for $150+15.60 shipping so $165.80 in total.  I did my research and it turns out that almost every SYE is made by the same manufacture and just put in a differnt box ( source jeepsunlimited.com).  The drive shaft showed up late last week and the shipping estimate for the SYE is 2-3 days, so it looks like I may be working on the Jeep this weekend!!!!  Works out well since the in-laws will be in town ;D

That's a good price. I'm saving my pennys now to be able to get one soon. 6.5" of lift in a XJ is a little much to be running without a SYE and CV shaft and I have the vibrations to prove it. At least most of the vibrations got solved Saturday when I went over to Jeremy's house and we replaced the crossmember, trans mount and passenger side engine mount.
