D-Shaft Q for Burbs w/Resr Bags Only.

Got a Burb I'm bagging in rear ( no notch) with 4.5 front static drop and wondering if my stock 2piece driveshaft should work without any mods?

As long as you don't notch the frame the length is fine. You might need to adjust the pinion angle depending how low you drive it. Definitely need a different track bar.

Re: D-Shaft Q for Burbs w/Resr Bags Only.

Well, finally got shat done for Burb and now it's too long??? Only mod I made other than bags is to flip front trailing arm mount. Any ideas or anyone else have this problem after flipping mounts. Guess I should have waited to do d-shaft or probably just put mounts back like they were. Bag setup is from ECE so it's not any kind of outlaw junk. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I tried flipping my front trailing arm mounts. All that did was create exhaust pipe contact to trailing arm and worsened my pinion angle. I ended up flipping it back to stock. I found less that 1/2" of length change from full height to dumped.
