I was under the 40 checking trans lube and noticed I could see about 3/4" of splines on my front shaft.
Shafts modified after 350 put in back in '85. Recent install of 2 1/2" lift, I guess this is the result? no splines observed before lift, and it has been over many trails. Only one here in Colorado since the lift... so it's gotta be that? Otherwise the shaft is ok with no pivot wobble and did not fall out. I'm trying to visualize how the lift would have caused that. Shaft now off for cleanup and then get lengthed. I can see grease line where it used to be. What is proper way to measure needed length?
