94 Ford F-350 7.3 idi lift questions









I have A 94 f350 I just finished lifting.

Front I went a total of 9 to 11 inch by sky manufacturing 5 inch reverse shackle and 4 to 6 inch leaf springs. ( not sure exact lift leaf springs where)

Rear I did 6 inch reverse shackle also from sky manufacturer.
how ever there is blocks here. Total of 6 inch, 2 blocks. Which I plan on swapping out with a single block from PMF with desired angle for dif to pinion.
So my questions are here with in this.
First let’s start with drive shaft. I was reading that some people get away from extending it by giving there dif a 5 degree angle. This sound some what crazy because I understand pinion angle and would like to know if this is doable.

I am all about doing this right, so I already know I have to extend my drive shaft and put some type of pinion angle. My question are where do I start, measure now for drive shaft or angle etc.

lengthen the front shaft and change rto 1410 at pinion, that will work with your angle. shimming the pinon up will fck up your caster and truck will drive horrible on the road, only way to do that correctly is cut and turn the c's on the axle tubes

^2 I ran 1410 u-joints all around on my F250. I know it’s older but should work fine on yours. I went to jy and got driveshafts out of 95 Fsuperduty and made my own 1410 shafts

1410 points do nothing if your not set up for them your 1350's will work.
bigger U-JOINTS do nothing on mall scooter.

nothing other than provide more angle, 1350's have little capability compared to a 1310 or 1410. First glance looks like that factory joint will bind or be close to bound up at ride height. I guess you could always run a tom woods offset joint

A 1350 only 20 degrees, a 1410 at 37 degrees of operating angle, plus stronger.
