    Hello there Tacoma world, I am in need of a bit of help from someone with the same configuration truck as mine. I just finished replacing my u-joints for the first time and I marked the driveshaft prior to taking it out, but i am now thinking i may have put the rear section of it in backwards. Could someone please post up a picture of your drive shaft with the weights in it pictured below? I am trying to figure out if they're supposed to be closest to the rear diff or closer to the carrier bearing. I have the weights closest to the carrier bearing right now so I'm crossing my fingers that i dont have to pull everything and redo it, but i checked on my DCSB and they're closer to the diff, so I think i may have screwed up:anonymous:

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
