Default How do i know if my driveshaft boot is torn?

I have a manual 2 dr with 2.75" of lift and whenever I'm climbing a hill or obstacle (offroad) and I'm having trouble I'll push in the clutch to back off and it sounds like something is wrong. It sounds like is coming from the rear like something is shifting 2 or 3 times

Look at it and see if it is torn. Nothing complicated here.

It would be very unlikley that it will contact a standard trany. You will be able to see t if it is ripped.

Climb under your jeep and take a look.
It may be something more than just a torn boot. Either way get under there and look around. You may find a problem. Good luck man, I hope all turns out well.

Grow up, no one wants to read your smart ass remarks because your trying to rack up posts any way you can in order to feel you've accomplished something in your pathetic life. Thank you to those who took my question seriously
