[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 427855, member: 18789"] Can’t really say if it’s necessary or not. I could not get mine to drive without vibrations on a 2.5” rough country lift. Considering that and the fact that you may have to change the transfer case input gear (which requires completely taking apart the transfer case), I’d probably lean towards doing an SYE while in there. And you’re going to need driveshafts anyways so yet another reason. Take some pics. Looking at the springs will make it obvious if they’re changed or not. Having a body lift will also contribute and so will the shackles you mentioned. Can probably get an estimate of how much lift you have off of that. I personally do not like the stock transfer case setup as it’s pretty weak, so if I had to tear apart the transfer case to swap the input gear for the transmission, I would do the SYE at the same time. Especially since a different length driveshaft will be needed anyways. [/QUOTE]
