    That's not worth the hassle... and I had a CV and a TC AOD sitting next to each other and could only measure a max of 1" difference.
    2011 Mustang GT Premium, MT82, Kona/Saddle, HIDs, 3.73s, 19s, hood/side stripes, UPR 1.5" springs with adjustable panhard bar, and UMI solid LCAs and relocation brackets.
    1992 Explorer Eddie Bauer, slight lift, 34s, and A/C...
    1979 Bronco Custom, 351M/C6/NP205, 4" lift, 35s, lots of fender trimming.

      Well then we gotta do like truck boys do - lift the hell outta it, axle will move forward and shaft will fit just fine

      note: need more coffee

                My Al DS eliminated vibration until well into triple-digit speeds. Probably helps a little in accel/decel with less rotational mass.

                  Not to burst your bubble, but by lifting the vehicle that much it also pulls the driveshaft yoke out of the back of the transmission, so it would only exaggerate the inadequate length (trust me, I know all about inadequate lengths). Not to mention that it'd put the tires really close to the front of the wheel wells and would look terrible to say the least.

                    Damn man, why you have to take everything I say for serious? I know about the lift stuff, with them cargo wagin coils I have like 1" gap before my rear tires and 2" behind them, kinda annoying but not a whole lot I can do right now.

                        Sorry- I only find jokes funny if they're true... which is why I get into so much trouble when I'm under the influence and telling jokes. No holds barred.
