Default CAUTION when lifting

ok i put the TF budget boost on my rubicon a while back and didnt remove either driveshaft either. i was changin the oil the other day and noticed the front driveshaft boot was badly damaged and was all in a bind and into the splines somewhat. took to the dealer to see what they could do and we came up with it got in that shape when i lifted it because you have to push the axle way down to get the coil back in and it got overextended. i called teraflex and they said there was no need to remove either shaft and i told them what happened and the acted like they had never heard of that before. also about a week after the bb i was at grayrock (its first trip offroad) and kept hearing a jingling noise, got out to inspect and had to put the clamp back on the rear driveshaft so im assumin that the rear got over extended also. just trying to help out and see if anybody else had this problem. i guess im goinna leave the front boot off and just keep an eye on the grease because there isnt a grease fitting for the spline anywhere

I have a feeling there will be more problems and more problems and more problems.
