I think I might have another issue and I need opinions...
So I recently replaced all my Tom woods shafts u joints... Replaced em with Spicer greasables... Had to get needle fittings due to clearance.. so i went to my driveline shop, and they noticed my front shaft slip shaft had too much sticking out. He said the shaft was the wrong length.. now I think this might be from the fact I got these shafts with having just front lowers only. Since changing to all flex arms the axle is much more forward, and i think this is why my shaft is like this now.

So i could drop the shaft off to them, then they cut the end off and add a longer tube..
Is there any way the two pieces could actually slip apart when flexing??
Should I worry about this???

Here are pics of the front and rear.
I recall when I got the shafts there was a lot less space....

Thoughts please guys, I got the tatas run next Sat....
Thanks!!!

 

Yea that's what I thought. When u say holding, u mean how much is left to come out ?? I would guess not too much...
I'm worried the shaft will separate.

 

Ok. Yea I have no idea, but I'm guessing it should not look like it does. My friend said his coast rear shaft looks similar, but it's a coast, and it's a two door.

 

I'm not sure if it matters with a 2dr, or 4dr, or front vs rear shaft. My gut is telling me there would be less, but idk honestly.

Also do u have all 8 adjustable arms?

 

Can someone else post a pic of there front aftermarket shaft with flex arms??


I'm not calling them. I already changed all the u joints in both shafts to spicer joints. Honestly I wish I had gone a diff route for the shafts, but that's another story..

 

Measure it. Pics can be deceiving.



I sent this pic to Tom and was told it was fine.

 

Looks like mine is a lil bit more than yours.. just took these.

 

I feel like that's a little more than you should and the powder coating job on those is horrible, I know you wheel but it shouldn't flake off like that.

 

I've painted it also.....

 

whut? for the price they charge...that's BS.
