Re: Drive shaft length

If you used a flip kit, the little brackets should have positioned the axle back to lessen the chances of bottoming out. My trucked looked goofy with the axle back...I was putting a new tranny in my junk, so i redrilled my flip kit brackets so the axle was centered, since i was going to have to get a new driveshaft anyway.
I did notice that the rusty part of the old driveshaft was riding on the seal of the old trans, and i do think that it wasn't quite sealing right.
