So decided to take a drive today and when i got home i noticed there was a nail in my tire. No big deal i can put a plug in it right? nope the bastard is in one of the lugs and wont come out. Its not leakin air or nothin but its botherin me a bit. So im left with two options try again tomorrow or just leave it and ride it out. i would put my spare on but kinda noticed my bottle jack doesnt lift it high enough and SOMEBODY bent my hi lift jack, not to piont any elbows (jeepinsoldier) soo yeah.

I still dont trust it from the last time we used it on your XJ.

And how the hell do you just rip out a front drive shaft?

No clue but I wasn't even wheeling that's the kicker. I was just driving down 18 and it started vibrating and I heard a loud a$$clunk so I pulled in the carwash parking lot there looked under and sure as sh!t it was out of the t-case...so I unbolted it from the front diff and its all quiet now. Just searching for a suitable replacement now..

What the wranglers have is actually a double cardan style not cv. Cv joints have a boot. It has two ujoints at one end and only one at the other. It is a popular conversion. Look at Tom woods or Carolina driveline

Just do the u joint shaft. Much easier to fix on the trail/anywhere if you break
