    Hello all! So what do y’all do when you’re converting a short bed 2.5l Comanche to 4X4 and the rear driveshaft can’t be used from a donor vehicle like the tranny and the axle could because the 4.0l sets further back than the 2.5l, so the driveshaft from That is too short?

    Custom length balanced driveshafts are in your future unless you can find some from the 80's.
