Great video.

Admiral Off-Road says:

Hey Mat I’d like to join the bleepin jeep team. My channel has some of my
XJ videos. Next one will be rock sliders and unibody stiffeners. Let me
know what you think! @bleepinjeep

imgettinby says:

it’s refreshing to see someone who makes small “boo-boos” but leaves them
in and makes corrections. Too many YT-ers edit it out to make themselves
look like know-it-all d!ckhe@ds. Don’t change your ways.

JunkfoodZombie says:

So, if we want to contribute off-road videos to the channel, do they have
to be jeep specific, or can they feature a variety of vehicles?

Scooby says:

Awesome vid. Looking at doing this my XJ in the near future =)

Jason Pfeifer says:

Can you please explain how your steering works since you tapped it for
hydraulic steering 

Jargon StarCraft says:

This video is a perfect example of why I love this channel. Thank you so
much for the upload. Fantastic content.

i noticed you put tranny fluid in there i did my chain last year and i used
gear oil in mine , it had gear oil in it from the previous owner just
assumed thats what was suposed to be in there never had any side effects
from it put another 70k miles on it befor it was totaled in a wreck a few
months ago 

Beryl Barker says:

Matt, What is the idea behind changing the housing and putting in a longer
drive shaft??

David Wallace says:

Great timing Matt. I was just about to do an SYE on my 2000 xj. It was
going to be my video submission. It’s ok though because I’m doing a head
and gasket replacement on mine due to a cracked head (0331 casting). I
think that can be my video submission then. Keep doing what you are doing.
This is the best YouTube channel for anyone that has an XJ!

awesom3man3 says:

Just to clarify – the stock drive shaft won’t fit correct? I have ~4.5″ of
lift and want to put a sye but would need a new correct length rear
driveshaft right?

Cobra Jennings the Third... says:

would a front drive shaft work in the rear?

ShawnMrFixit Lee says:

Why the RTV on the yoke and Yoke nut ?? Just never seen that step before
?? Thumbs up for ya though …

Shane ooo says:

Left or right threads on pinion on the slip york

Mac Silvey says:

this is easily the best channel on YouTube!

Afranc765 says:

Little lost. Why would i want this?

Andrdw Boldt says:

Helps a whole lot if you put the barrings in your freezer because metal
shrinks in the cold but just leave in in there for an hour or two then it
just slides in no hammering needed 

Spitfire 77 says:

Sweet timing; my SYE is supposed to be delivered today and I was going to
search if you had an SYE video anyway.

Mark A. says:

Hack-n-tap all the way! lol
Great detailed video. If I go this route on my next build I know where to
find good info. Keep up the great work and videos.

rosconole says:

Ultra black RTV ! Not only does it look better it works better than that
orange copper crap and you can use it for alot of different applications. 

Greg Jones says:

This is perfect, Im ordering my SYE next week. Thank you!

unidentifiedbomb says:

“Bombproof” from RC is a bold move, let’s see how it plays out cotton!

Kyle Cochran says:

Please do a rear main seal video!!!!!!!!!! Thank you!

Logan Wood says:

Could you do a oil pan install?
