    Well joy, makes me happy! Guess I jumped the gun on getting that driveline done. Oh well, I guess I'll take both in now.

    What adapter did you use? Did you go 27 spline?

    I need to get on this train. I'm currently running just 5:1 tcase gears right now and but I bought donor tcase awhile ago just need an adapter.
