Slip Yoke Eliminator
What is the popular opinion about slip yoke eliminators? Do you folks have
favorite manufacturer's, or good or bad things to say about them? I am
considering one for my YJ, it is at 4" of lift with 35" tires, and it is
time to do it. Thanks for your advice.

Re: Slip Yoke Eliminator
One of the single best mods I've done to my YJ. I have the "hack and Tap"
version from Rubicon Express. This is not the best way to do it, however at
the time I was on a tight budget and it was WAY cheaper. The only thing you
do is remove the tail cone, cut the end of the shaft off, and drill and tap
a hole to bolt the cv retainer. Mine has been working great for over six
years now. Like I said this is not the best option, cutting the shaft "in
place" heats it up tremendously. I'm sure the heat weakens the shaft. The
full replacement from JKS or Rubicon Express is the best way if you have the
funds. And by the way, if you choose to do the full replacement, be sure to
get the 2wd lo shift fork and add to the t-case. It's a great option.
