Ok great so I have a 1993 wrangler and I put new standard leaf springs on front and rear and it did lift the jeep some. So how do I account for that do I still need a SYE? I did notice the angle did change some because of the new stock suspension.

Hi and thanks for the detailed video! I have a question though : adding a slip yoke eliminator and a double cardan will eventually completely ruin the caster. How do you fix the caster issue? cutting the axle and welding the ends in the new correct caster for e.x??? thanks!
@tomwoodscustomdriveshafts
@tomwoodscustomdriveshafts 2 ай бұрын
The steering caster is on the front axle. The slip yoke eliminator is so you can run a double cardan drive shaft on the rear. So the required pinion angle adjustments on the rear axle do not affect the caster.

What an a 8" lift on a K20? I have a one transfer drop and the slip eliminator kit, already installed by the previous owners, the guy I got it from installed a 14 bolt free float axle. I get a pretty good harmonic vibration at anything over 60 mph. The rear axle has no shims in it, what do I need to correct it?

could you change the NP231 cv yoke to a 1350 output flange? Curious as I have a NV231 Tcase with the slip yoke 1310 - I wanted to get a stronger drive shaft for the rear (1330 or 1350) because the rear drive shafts available are 1310 for the TJ non rubicon. Is it possible? (assuming the drive shaft is complimentary to the new output flange of the tcase and Rear diff has the upgraded 1330 or 1350 yoke) Thank you and hope it makes sense! Great video :)

It is not necessary to put more oil in but the fill plug location changes so make sure to put the normal amount of oil in. An explanation of this can be found at the 12 minute mark of our video "Drive Shaft Angles Explained".

The one thing you don't tell us is this. Do you check angles with full weight on tires or when tires off the ground? I have a 1992 YJ with slip yoke eliminator. I'm also swapping out my D35 for a 2002 Ford Explorer truck 8.8. I need to know if I can set up the pinion angle while the tires are off or if I have to assemble everything and do a trial and error of tightening and loosening the axle until I get the right angle. Also the 8.8 yoke is offset to one side. Great video otherwise. Very informative.
@tomwoodscustomdriveshafts
@tomwoodscustomdriveshafts 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Phil. The angles should be measured and set at normal ride height. This means you ether need to have the Jeep parked on flat ground or it is being supported by the axles on a lift or on jack stands.

So would there be any harm if i set my pinion angle (jeep wrangler 2 dr) 2 degrees above the driveshaft as opposed to 2 degrees under the driveshaft? Like when you said set pinion angle 2 degrees under for the leaf spring and you get 4 degrees axle wrap which brings the pinion 2 degrees on top of the driveshaft. Seems like you might of said its ok to have your 2 degrees above the drive shaft without actually saying those words.
@tomwoodscustomdriveshafts
@tomwoodscustomdriveshafts 3 жыл бұрын
It is fine to have it 2 degrees high on vehicles with coil springs because they don't wrap and rotate like leaf springs do. Not necessary, and to keep the pinion angle adjustment less extreme most people will shoot for their pinion to be a couple degrees lower than the drive shaft as opposed to a couple degrees above. But either will work and if your pinion is already set up that way there is absolutely no reason you need to change it.

Thank you for the video, the problem I’m having at the moment I have a new 392 jeep with a 4 1/2 inch lift and if I get the front pinion angle proper I cannot steer the jeep if I roll out the caster to slow the steering down then the pinion angle is wrong I don’t know what to do? And I can’t find a shop that I could work with locally to help me get the thing to steer once the pinion angle is set in other words if I adjust the lower control arms longer it slows the steering down but drops the angle of the differential downward which is bad for the pinion angle and if I adjust the upper control arms it basically does the same thing if any of this makes sense I am been lost on what to do?

It doesn't affect it. The ring gear centrifuges the oil through the entire differential housing with enough velocity that it can easily get where it needs to go. This can be seen around 4:00 in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYnKoaB4h5JmfMUsi=DRalClvDvclmzavK&t=208

Well in this demonstration I actually just loosened a bolt and rotated the pinion on the tube stand that it is on. In real life though you would adjust the pinion by either using shims if you have leaf springs or adjustable control arms if you have coil springs. With the shims you install them between the springs and the spring perch. We even have a handy shim calculator on our website 4xshaft.com/collections/drive-shaft-parts/products/axle-shims. The control arm adjustment is demonstrated here kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJfKgGmmd9mElZo.

Good video but a bit over my head. I have an 89 Jeep YJ I bought from a friend. He and another friend of his put in a Pro Comp 4 inch lift but didn’t do anything to the transfer case or change the driveshafts. As a result, my YJ jumps out of second gear but only when coasting. My son says I need either longer driveshafts or slip yolk eliminators. Any advice for me?

Only on the front pinion. There is no steering castor in the rear and the SYE is all about the rear shaft. On front shafts though, we tell people that the drive shaft may want the pinion to be a certain angle but the steering caster wants something else, and the steering caster takes priority.
