The rear driveshaft was definately the hardest thing I had to deal with after the lift. I had about an inch of spline showing.
I live in an area that is not renouned for its stellar machine shops so after three attemps with the local rednecks, I'd had enough. I decided to go with a CV and an early 60 series front shaft was the perfect fit (minus having to cut out the torque tube). Got one from another MUD member and no more issues after shimming the rear axel to get the pinion angle correct.
