    Aight cool. Thanks for the write up link. So it's not "hard" work, just time consuming. What about driveshaft lengths?

    Yeah it's not super hard just takes a while. As for driveshaft lengths I just measured my stock one in the back and subtracted 8.5" from that length and had a new one made. I then kept my stock one as spare once I retubed it to size. I went without a front driveshaft for a week or so and just measured the space between the front diff and tcase and had them modify the front one to fit. I think the back ended up being 60" and the front 28.5" or something like that

    Gotcha. How much were the drive shafts? Obviously that needs to be added into the initial costs that maybe everyone didn't think about. Haha

    Soonish. :D

    I think I paid 150 each to have them retubed and balanced. Also picked up a spare shaft from Craigslist for like $75 and had it retubed so probably like $400 just in driveline mods haha
