in the large trucks driveshaft length is usually limited to 5 foot or so. any longer and a carrier bearing is installed.
the kenworth W900 lowboy in work has three 4 foot driveshafts with 2 carrier bearings between the trans and front rear.

This mabey a dumb question but if your wheel speed is around 50, do you put it in 4 high or 4 low on the track? Im guessing 4 high?

Ok, so 4 low is good for the track. When should I ever use 4 high? when i need to go faster than 70?
