Super Shorty SYE Kit

what's the benefit of going with a super short SYE versus a regular one?

There will be a longer distance between the output yoke and the rear axle, which will result in a lower driveshaft angle.

yea, but for the money you spend on a super short, if your are going like 9 or 10" of lift thats probably what i'd get, but for the normal lifts you can get, 1-6" lift kits, a regular would do just fine.

The JB supershort is acually the same price as some of the other brands regular sye you just need to look around a little bit and i say its worth it to minimize your driveshaft angle and not have to worry about vibes just my

Just factor into the price that you need a speed sensor controller box if you want your speedometer to read correctly. The supershort uses a tone ring to determine vechicle speeds so if you want something other than default speed sensor, you'll need a controller box to change the signal sent to the computer. The regular SYE, you can change out a $15 speedo gear to get the correction.

The Tera unit is NOT the same as the JB Conversions unit. Thats why you can find it for less.

Go for the JB

Everytime you flex out your angle gets worse. The less angle the better.
75 bucks for a 30percent increase lenght is worth it to me
