When I look at the pic of the yolk going into the rear of the trans, I see the yolk almost hard up against the end of the trans...even with a 3 " rear drop, the driveshaft should not be so far forward that the yolk bottoms out like it is...

You mentioned 3" rear drop...did you also add the 2" lowering blocks under the rear axle mount points...essentially making this a 5" drop?
