OK here's one for ya, i got the Tcase in, the short adapter was already notched for the shifter rail (whoo hoo!!), i had to sawzall the exhaust off cause it was in the way.....now the problem, the double u-joint at the Tcase for the front driveshaft hits the tranny pan, can i run one ujoint there or do i have to find a long adapter?? and how much longer is the long adapter than the short one??

I am running a single ujoint on my driveshaft with the short adaptor without problems. If no one else posts before then I will measure the adaptors on my spare transmission, tcases later when I go and work on the truck and see what the difference in lengths are.

I never did switch that setup out and never had to replace ujoints. Only problem I ever had was the B&M shift cable was pretty close to it so just had to pull the cable to the side a little.
