I'm curious what some only the 5+ inch lifted guys pinion angles look like

Just called up Rustys Offroad and said we needed adjustable upper arms for the XK. They already had the specs on file (makes me think we're not the first to actually see this issue).Originally Posted by stites-xk
Called Rustys Offroad yesterday and ordered the adjustable upper arms should be here in a couple days. Thanks for the heads up Mark!
Just curious... What prompted you to place the order? Are you hearing noise, or is this just prophylactic?
I also wonder how your front drive shaft is holding up. Brad at Carolina Driveline told me that he sees a lot of lifted Grand Cherokees that use these shafts (since MY1999!) and have them failing at the TC. I'll be the first XK getting this setup.

Prophylactic , sounds like a Medical Device!! My oldest kid 32 can come up with some words, but on the other hand he is a Blackhawk Helecopter Pilot. How about a little preventive maintenance. No noise yet. Front Driveline seems OK so far. Only 39k miles.
I also had a 99 Grand Cherokee that I lifted never had any drive line issues got rid of it at 135k mi.
My Dodge 2500 Diesel has a front drive line like your getting and I think my old CJ7 did too. New design not always better. But I never thought I would have a independent front end either.
Medical is what I'm all about, but that sounds boring compared to Blackhawk Helicopter Pilot!

Hey Mark... with the Superlift are you able to replace the front driveshaft without dropping the trans crossmember?
