the axle and the spring. Which way do they go?? Thick part in front or towards the back??? -- Message posted via http://www.carkb.com |
Re: angle wedge on Rubicon lift
You want to tilt the pinion up towards the transfer, but there's a
limit if you don't have the new driveshafts with constant velocity joints: http://www.4xshaft.com/driveline101.html God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ "Robb S via CarKB.com" wrote: > > 89 YJ installing my lift, have angle wedges (degree spacers) for between > the axle and the spring.

after tires. -- Message posted via http://www.carkb.com |

Re: angle wedge on Rubicon lift
"probably" with the wedge to the front to bring the pinion up. Most of
the lift springs tend to point the pinion down. You want the pinion to be PARALLEL to the trnsfercase shaft. Use a carpenter square on the pinion and another one on the back end of the transfer case to get close to optimum. Have one person hold the two squares in place, have a buddy eyeball from the side. It's really obvious from the side, you can't even tell from underneath.
