Default Installing T-Case drop and more lift

I already have a 2inch lift kit in my TJ and get some slight tailshaft vibes in first gear so ive bought a T-Case Drop kit to fix this. When installing this is it just a matter of replacing the six bolts with the spacers and longer bolts? is there anything else i need to loosen or remove while doing so? (this is temporary until i have the $ for an SYE), i also want to install some 1 inch spring spacers is this going to defeat the purpose of the T-Case drop and cause more problems? should i just wait till i get the SYE?
cheers
Sam

i would install the t-case spacers. just longer bolts and the spacers are required...

however i wouldnt install more lift untill you get the SYE. When i went up to 3.5" in the rear with t-case spacers it was pretty much undriveable.
