You should've doubled up your cardigan....Double Cardigan ha ha. It's been a treat with so many videos coming out in short time, it's gonna be a good year!
I'm doing a lot of upgrades on my TJ this coming spring and summer and Tom Woods is on my list . My rear driveshaft has already been upgraded when I did the SYE a couple years ago , but I'm going to have them make another one for a spare and have them make one for the front . I love their products and the fact their only 10 minutes from our house . Not related but I just ordered the Vision Manx wheels for it , like the ones you have . Take care and be safe my friend and sending some love to Pinto .
So I just installed the metal cloak long arms on my jku thanks to you! Now I’m running the same thing this Jeep is and I’m finding that at metal cloaks recommend long arms lengths at 33 1/4 that my teraflex speed bump are off by like an inch. My question is did you run in to this problem? And did you have to shorten the arms if so do you happen to have a idea on the arm lengths ?
I only started at that measurement and adjusted to get the bump stops to hit right and pinion angle perfect. I don't remember the final measurements but they would be different on all Jeeps. Takes a lot of time and patience for that part.
What constitutes a flange at the front axle vs a yoke? My 2015 Jk front dana 30 kept the factory flange when installing my 1350 shafts per tom woods instructions. I will be upgrading my axles end of year maybe to a dana 44 / 60.
I have the same setup on my Jeep as you described and will be 44/60 by the end of the year as well. I personally like the flanges on the pinion side as well but most of the axle kits come with yokes.
Hey Jason! : Did you remove the rubber pinion seals before putting the Tom Woods billet pieces in? I would imagine so because the RTV creates the new seal for the splines, but I have not seen many videos of people taking those seals out. It almost looks like they put them into that seal.
@@AutoEdits thank you Jason! Just finished my build ! Finally! 3.5 rocksport Gamechanger with the HD steering Kit and Tom woods driveshafts. Thank you for all these videos brother. Been watching your channel for some time through the years. I still can’t rack my brain how you filmed AND installed all that as a one man show . Thanks for helping me with my first lift. ( came from VW’s and 30’s - 60 ratrods. )
@@TribeOfSkate So glad to hear this! Thanks so much for appreciating the effort... cool to hear your hot rod background! Fun how easy that translates into the Jeep world!!!
That gets taken care of when they are built. Tom Wood's driveshafts are truly craftsmen when it comes to quality. All you do when you get them is install them.
At what lift hight is it recommended to swap out your drive shafts i just lifted my jeep 2.5 with 35’s and i hear a noise when i take off after its been running it goes away
I am not an expert so take this advice at face value. That being said...If the noise goes away after the Jeep warms up, it is probably not the drive shaft. When a noise occurs as you're accelerating, I would assume it is coming from the transmission. This makes more sense to me because as the transmission fluid warms up, it has better lubrication and can make the noise disappear. I had the same issue on my 2008 JK before I sold it. Sadly, I never fixed the issue to know what exactly it was. I had a 3 inch lift and 35's as well! Lots of fun.
@@Avg0092 It may be a combination of things. If you're not mechanically inclined (like me), I'd suggest taking it to a shop and getting a check-up on it. The "Mom and Pop" shops seem to be really good at diagnosing issues without trying to up-sell unnecessary parts. That will give you a good baseline on where to start and where to look. Other than that, Jeeps seem to be pretty reliable, even when people beat on them. Keep watching these types of videos to educate yourself on how to work on it! Autoedits is a great channel.
There is some good advice already here (thanks guys) It depends on how you use your Jeep. Hard wheeling can break stuff at any lift but 3.5 " lift is as far as I pushed mine.
The Mr Rogers of Jeep upgrade channels on TH-cam.
Lol
😂😂😂🤘
LOVE THIS!!!
Man, this was exactly the video I was hoping to find on ordering and installing Tom Woods driveshafts. Thanks so much!
So happy to hear this! I'm ordering one this week using the same technique!
You should've doubled up your cardigan....Double Cardigan ha ha.
It's been a treat with so many videos coming out in short time, it's gonna be a good year!
Great idea!! I found an old sale from Tom Wood's where they actually sold double cardigans...lol

Awesome, thank you!
I had Tom Woods drive shafts on my old JK, was very happy with them. Don't need new shafts yet on my current one, but will go with TW again.
It's a good product for sure.

I like your plan of having a spare... I never think that far ahead...LOL Hope you like the Manx wheels as much as I like mine! Pets for Pinto!
I need some of Tom's Wood under my Jeep. I am in the market for shafts and this got me sold. Great video as always!
Right on! Tell them Pinto the dog sent ya... might get some swag!
My Tuesday night just improve Jason. Thanks dude and nice wardrobe! 👍
Awesome... glad you appreciate the effort!!! LOL
This was a great video Jason! Your videos are just getting better and better.
I appreciate that!
the Jokes make the channel better
Thanks dude! I'll keep the yokes ... lol
Very very useful. Thanks as always bud.
Thanks dude!
Thanks for another good informative video!
You bet!
Man I love Pinto!
Me too!
Jeeping Jason looks suspiciously a lot like Ram Johnson.
HA! Come to think of it, I've never seen them at the same time...LOL
Mechanical advantage. Best leverage point. You can move mountains.
truth!
The first guy in cardigan lol
Gotta try for the world records!
I don't even need driveshafts still saw the whole thing.
I appreciate that a lot!
You missed a great opportunity to do a double cardigan install.
YAY, I'm the 153rd viewer!!!!
HA! That's hilarious and cheers!
Some day my jeep will hit puberty and get a woody.
That's a good one! LOL

Deal! LOL
@@AutoEdits that makes me happy lol!!

The only seal I removed was the one attached to the stock yolk.

Any clutch advice? New to the sport.
Foot on the pedal when using it and on the floor when not. Riding the clutch will wear it out.
ThAts what she said
Thank you for helping me get that official! LOL!!!
@@AutoEdits I gotchu
Having a clicking sound which I believe is my front stock driveshaft. Do I have to upgrade both driveshafts or can I upgrade my front first?
Absolutely can do one at a time!
How do you go about the phasing of the driveshafts so you don’t get a vibrations ?
That gets taken care of when they are built. Tom Wood's driveshafts are truly craftsmen when it comes to quality. All you do when you get them is install them.
What kind of numerical upgrade would I see in this driveshaft? I mean in performance. A good estimation maybe?
Do you have a lift kit or larger tires on your Jeep? You need a driveshaft upgrade of some sort.
@@AutoEdits 4 inch lift on 35s
If you intend to actually go off road... yes you would benefit from an upgrade.
At what lift hight is it recommended to swap out your drive shafts i just lifted my jeep 2.5 with 35’s and i hear a noise when i take off after its been running it goes away

Sadly, I never fixed the issue to know what exactly it was. I had a 3 inch lift and 35's as well! Lots of fun.
To be honest I haven’t checked the tranny fluid but i did have signs of a grease on my driveshaft

Update i fixed this problem with a couple .50cent washers was worried i might of been something else
any discount codes to order these shafts?
I don't have a discount code but they were still offering a "Pinto the Dog" special where you might get some swag or something... never hurts to try!
what kind of doors are those???
Mopar half doors.
No no no. That's not right. We need "that's what she said" jokes back.
Deal! 🤣
Your poor lawn.
Yeah, it's "our" lawn.
