This is a great video to follow along with. My only comment would be to let the RTV dry for about 5 mins before fully torquing the bolts down. That way you don't get as much pump out as seen in the video. Also, make sure to actually go 360* around lubed surfaces rather than 180*. Other than that, someone could easily use this video (and a spare set of hands) to swap the SYE out.

Great video! Thanks for sharing. I put in a Zone 4.5 inch lift kit with the full leaf spring and shackle package. Did your vibration go away? Maybe you did not have any after you installed the lift and drop. My setup vibrates a bit even with the crossmember drop in it. How about your pinion angles front and rear? Did you have to change that to accommodate the CV driveshafts? I was thinking about putting the old front CV driveshaft on the rear to see how it fit then have a local driveshaft shop build me a set. I do appreciate your videos. I think you are (please don't take this wrong) a guy that is on a budget like myself that isn't given parts for free like some of these YT superstars get on a regular basis.

Thanks! I haven't had any vibs really with the rear with the drop and SYE but rather the front shaft I have. The front has an even worse angle with a drop and wears the slip joint of the shaft out pretty fast. So I really wanted to get the SYE done to fix my front shaft vibs. I haven't even measured the rear angles at all but it ain't terrible, maybe later on ill shim it but its not causeing any vibs at the moment.
