I would like to try this lift, but don't really want to do the sye. thanks for your responses in advance.

The extended drive shaft will keep you from wobbling at 2", possibly even at 3", but 4" is pushing it. Maybe somebody else will say otherwise...

I'm sure there are some LJ owners who are running the RE 4.5" on an LJ. And remember the RE 4.5" is more like 5"-5.5".....

I had a slight vibration at take off and above 55MPH. I have heard of some that didn't need it though.

Yes. I ran the transfercase drop for about 10 months while I saved money for the SYC/CV. It had no vibes with the TC drop.

nice, but you have a rubi. that might change everything since i have a sport. i regret not getting a rubi, but i was impatient and didn't want to go to atlanta to get a red one.
