The great thing about Tom Woods is that they come with new flanges that decrease the overhang of the stock output shaft of the t-case. This also lenghtens the driveshaft and reduces the angularity. Plus he ships lickity split.

i went with je reel with the new yokes .they where local and a lot of the guys here run them . after the 1st week of haven it i bent it on the auto transmission skid(factory) even after notching and using spacers. i took it back and they straightened it and rebalanced it for 120.00 the drive shaft is great just make sure you have the clearances so you dont damage it like i did .

Tatton's come with new flanges for axle and t-case as well.
