Can't wait for the pics!
They're brand new bolts. Guess I gave it a little too much umph.

This is with both lifts still installed. WD-40 can for.reference.

I tried to get the alignment close until I get it to a alignment shop on Monday. I also have some driveline vibes under acceleration.

Drive line vibes? We had some of those at low speed accel, but the driveshaft was binding without the tcase drop. Maybe a sye in the future?

Yeah, I think a SYE is going to happen sooner rather than later. Found a local driveshaft shop that makes the DC shafts for a reasonable price.

Jeep looks great Jeff. Makes me miss mine. Carolina Driveline in Greenville is a really great place for a driveshaft. Custom made to your length specifications.
