Ok, so I went to r/r the tcase front output shaft bearing and found
water ingress up to the oil seal (from the outside). I had previously
unlocked the CDL with the front shaft off and watched the front output
spin and make all kinds of terrible noises...

Just now with everything disassembled from the outside except the
bearing, I did the same. Bearing looks fine and spins silently with
absolutely no play. I'm gonna go put it together now with the original
bearing, clean out the rusty spots and lube it up really good.

Interesting,
I'll let you guys know if that fixes the noises.

Also, how many run a 3" lift with RTE front arms and stock shaft? With
or without vibes?

Did you drop the t-case for the repair? Just wondering.

I've done 3" lifts on RRover Classic and Disco, Both required CV driveshaft. With or without Off-set arms. New arms make huge difference in handling/driving proformance.
