onespiritbrain Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Have you had the driveshaft out? If so, how were the bearings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

system_f Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) I just realized this may be a 2wd R50, I forgot they even made those, in which case there are other options....but why would you lift it? When I lifted above about 4" I had to drill/tap the output shaft of my transfer case, order a special driveshaft (from Tom Woods) with a double cardian joint at the transfer case and a single U-joint at the pinion, they took my slip splines from my old driveshaft and built me a slip yoke eliminator, then I had to angle the pinion (I had adjustable links) so that it was pointing at the transfer case output. All in I spent about $500, but it was worth every penny. A complete night and day difference. With the 2" lift that I have now the stock driveshaft u-joints are at <5 degrees angle, which is fine and much less expensive.

KSAR50 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 Thanks guys Is the front lift effects the rear lift ? Meaning if i lift front more can i lift rear more ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PathyDude17 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 You can lift the front and rear independently of eachother. Generally, without an SFD, the front maxes out at somewhere around 2-2.5”. 3 hours ago, KSAR50 said: Thanks guys Is the front lift effects the rear lift ?
