well ... the rattle/ringing wasn't 100% gone ... stupid sticks :LOL:

they are still metal to metal on the tube welded to each stick for side to side spacing. i can make some PTFE washers and re-adjust the spacing the bolt bottoms on, but first i found this boot to try. CJ2a transfercase shirter boot. boot was a huge win, 2-fold. the ringing in the sticks was is 100% eliminated again. the flange and extra material also helped block more exhaust and road noise from coming up into the cab.

These sticks really need a plastic washer between them to damp them, but i'd need to grind/machine something to make room for it. that's my next step.
