Hello I'm new to the site and recently I picked up a 1982 Pickup. I got a 3" spring lift from rough country, and also installed 2" shackles. My question is with the 2" shackles I need more of an angle so my driveshaft lines up, so what degree shims do I need? And also what size driveshaft do I need because the stock one is too short?

 

can't tell you what angle shim you need, but for the drive shaft remove it from the flanges and measure from the pinion flange to transfer case output flange, that measurement to the d/s shop, they will know what to do with it.
