Are you saying the drive line is too long? Non CV can be used if the angles are right at the pinion & T-case. Take pics I'ts fairly easy to shorten a drive line if you can weld... BTW ~ Love the rig!!

Re: 205 Output
The problem with no CV on the front is that you need approximately the same angles on both yokes. The tcase side is going to be pitched up towards the front on the truck while the axle would need to be rotated down in the back to match. Check out Tom Woods drivelines website for a better explanation with pictures. It might work for offroad only. Cool truck.

Re: 205 Output
many of the older trucks in the 50 60s era had no CV joint
I have none in my Cj 7 Gene Sharp |
