[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 438353, member: 18789"] Shims are not correct if you're using a factory driveshaft. Especially not a shim that large. The PO could have had vibrations with the SYE for a number of reasons. It's possible that huge shim on the springs wasn't correct for that setup. You can take the SYE out of your old transfer case and put it in the new XJ transfer case. I would do that, reevaluate the angles and change the shim if needed (likely), and then lastly try a new driveshaft. You could try to ditch the shim and run the stock driveshaft, but the stock driveshaft does not like much added angle. I would drop the suspension to stock height or close to it if I were going to do something like that. [/QUOTE]
