Is this a problem...? (Pictures)

[Christiank22]

I know my driveshaft is too long. I had trouble with the Tom Woods measuring instructions and did the working length wrong. I didn't think it was too big of a deal because it still fit, but could this be causing transmission problems? Or robbing me of power?

neither powertrain part is able to move up and down so what is wrong exactly ?

 

if you remove the front u joint caps and pull the shaft off the diff yoke ,does it go into t case slightly ?

 

if you answered yes to the question you have no problem ,,,,im sorry you bought a lift kit ,,,,,i feel for ya brother !!! lol

Hahahaha yeah I love having it lifted but there's so many little things that change. As far as the driveshaft goes, with the old drive shaft the boot or cover used to be fully extended and now it pushes the boot all the way to the t case.

its fine ,,,,,you can see a dr for the lifted truck disease ,,,im sure its a curable dealio !!! lol

Sorry, haven´t been here for a couple of weeks...

 

Well I went back coz´ I drive this truck a lot now espacially on the highway, which is called Autobahn here in Germany. So if u want to Keep up with the traffic u have to go more than 60mph. This was the only Speed imho which gave me mpgs that were acceptable. More than that and u could watch the gas needle go down...had enough of that...now I can go about 140kmh/80mph without sacrifiying mpgs...towing is also much better now

Totally understandable! I would like to see how much quicker my truck would be if I didn't have the lift and tires!
