Ive had my jeep since may of 09 for my first jeep . i knew i wanted a 4x4 and i always loved jeeps so my dad told my to get a Wrangler but i decided i wanted to be different from everyone else and started looking for grand cherokee's in the 99-04 range which is a WJ .... soon enough i found my jeep with 108xxx miles with the I6 engine
Before
After. 4inch rough country lift and 32s
7.25 IRO lift and 35s
AND HERES THE BUILD..
its wasn't too far after the day i got it and i took it out on some trails
when i got home
i know my rims are still clean.. on the way out of the trail was just water
So got the jeep back from and alignment today and everything is good except my front driveshaft is vibrating and they said they can't adj. it anymore ...
your driveshaft is a double cardon right? if not.. get one or a double double. if it is then your pinion is way too high and needs to be lowered. someone correct me if im wrong

Sorry I mainly took this picture for people who have the IRO long arms so they can see the bracket ...I'm currently stuck at Rowan university girlfriend is driving me to my house right now to pick up my tools so I can take out the front DS so I can at least drive home Sunday
I think my iro longarms are set the complete opposite of what yours are. I have also had vibes for awhile now. Hope to be changing my u-joints tomorrow.
Gonna be working on my front and rear driveshaft angles on Friday ...also gonna try to replace my upper control arm bushing on the axle ...anyone got any tips on how to replace the bushing? Gonna take everyone's driveshaft angle tips into consideration so thank you everyone for those tips!! Hopefully everything goes well because the alignment to IRO's specs really helped with the jeeps Handling
Changed my rear u-joints today to see if that would calm down the vibs ..nothing still the same so I'm gonna adj. the angles tomorrow ...pain in the butt because no shop will touch my jeep anymore because the lift kit is too extreme .....

My front shaft is good ..it's basically brand new I had in on for a year ...then my front axle blew up so I got that rebuilt with the 4:56s then I just drove around for almost a year with out my front DS I just gotta find the time to mess with the jeep with no body bothering me and adj. the angles
stock driveshaft ...your actually suppose to shorten the DS when you swap in the 44a because on the 44a the pinion is a little bit longer than on the d35 ...so i just pushed the axle back some instead of shortening the actual driveshaft
not gonna do that ..when there a bunch of dubs running 6.5 and the stock DS idk why mine is being special
