OK. . .first off I will apologize right off the bat because I didn't do a search on this first, I didn't have a clue what to type into the search box to get what the info I wanted. . .soooo if you already know that this has been answered and you just wanna post a link up to help me out that's great. . .on to the question. . .
I plan on doing a SOA on my '94 YJ and I heard that you can use the front driveshaft from a Cherokee instead of buying a new CV driveshaft. . .all you need to do is take the measurements and take it to your local driveshaft shop and get it shortened. . .hopefully this is true as I did buy an front XJ driveshaft today from the salvage yard. . .might have jumped the gun a little there. . .don't think so, but it's possible.
So I'm relatively new to off-roading so this is a basic question. . .what if anything should I do to the XJ driveshaft to upgrade it. . .I know that I can replace the U-joints, but I don't know what is in there to start with and I don't know much about the different series of U-joints. . .gonna try to read up on that, but I'm looking for some quick education. . .
Thanks!!!
