after installing my add-a-couple-leafs lift... I had a problem with driveline vibrations... I had a thought that it might be my driveshaft angle, but at a 2" lift it seemed strange... then I remembered about my transmission... when my jeep went through puberty and lost his baby ax-15 and got a new one, it was from an cherokee 2 years older. well.. the bolt alignment on the transmission for the Tcase was a little different... this caused my Tcase to have to turn a little, causing it to sit higher on my skid plate... I got sick of it today when I was asked to plow. The last thing I want to hear is clank clank clank clank clank clank clank clank clank clank clank clank clank damn clank clank clank clank clank clank boom boom boom boom boom boom clank clank clank damn... So I decided to get the cutting wheel and the recip saw out and lay in the snow for about a half hour. I cut away a few chunks of my skid plate.. yeah its ugly, quite so... and a little weaker... but its holding up the transmission, Tcase, and itself... and it got rid of the vibes... when I get rid of my frostbite on my back... I'm looking forward to a smooth (relative term, being that it is a jeep) comfortable ride[addsig]
