Undercover Fab Trans Mount

So ive been having issues with killing CV shaft centering bearings on the rear of the red TJ. After the last round of issues i ended up installing a new factory trans mount and everything worked great.

Recently the rear driveshadt was making a thumping noise and i remebered the trans mount issue. I figure with the 3.5"-4" of lift, the Clayton Tummy Tuck skid, no motor mount lift plus the fact that the 8.8 is a little offset from the tail end of the tcase. All of that was putting extra stress on the driveshaft. I got word of this trans mount that will lower the drivetrain an inch, so i went with it.

All in all the install wasnt to difficult. The hardest part was dropping the skid and crossmember. I had to remodify my exhaust mount because i shortened it after i put tue belly up skid on. So far so good. Feels solid and stable. Its probably the nicest its driven since ive owned it. Although having to install all new ball joints and a bearing hub to pass inspection helps too. Here are some pics of the install.

I don’t see the pics, but glad to hear you’ve solved the problem. I’ve got driveline vibes that I’ve got to get rid of. Driving me crazy. I know it’s all about angles and such. Just haven’t gotten the time lately to get to it.

I just had a chance to upload.

Do you think it’s the front end or rear end? It took me YEARS to feel like I finally dialed in my steering and driveline. I think I developed carpal tunnel from so many years of fighting death wobble. It’s feels like a big win to have it drive smooth.

I see them now! looks great. For me, I’m pretty sure it’s rear shaft angle. Gotta get under there with the magnet angle finder. Maybe I’ll shim to get it right. And if/when I do I’ll weld the rear perches to the appropriate angle. I also still need to remove the front driveshaft to be sure it’s not that, but that’s easy enough. And like I said I’m 90pct sure it’s the rear.
