I have a high angle driveline in mine and it cost $550 for it and the custom flange for the 205. So that will be another expense you should factor in. Gotta love the short wheelbase
Thanks for the heads up! Never thought about the shorter wheelbase. The truck is fine with the stock driveline lengthened but a blazer is even shorter.

I know a guy that owns a driveline shop so hopefully he will give me a good deal when I need drivelines.

Hey jaros44sr, heres a couple pics for ya.
