driveshaft / yoke question
My driveshaft is currently 1 to 1.25" too short. I was going to have it lengthened, which I expect will cost me $200+ since I'll need a whole new tube.
Then I realized you can buy longer slip yokes. Seems like it will work, but I am wondering if anyone is aware of a problem I might encounter. The yoke currently sits 2" out from fully inserted in the trans, meaning only about 1.75" of spline engagement by my measurements. I think I can buy this yoke which is about 1.25" longer, which should result in the yoke sitting about 0.75" out from fully inserted in the trans, and around 3" of spline engagement: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/axe-lt675 What's wrong with this? Will I have issues with it bottoming out in the trans? Will it cause any vibration or unusual loading on the tail shaft?
