over lifted issues

hey guys I installed my hysteer and lifted the truck 7in. Ive ran into a couple issues i wonder if anyone else came across. I got the hysteer on flawlessly no prob once so ever its like a new truck. but the lift is what caused the probs. my front driveshaft was too short which was an easy fix I bought some driveshaft tubing and extended it but my rear is a two piece and there is too much of a bind on my support bearing is there an extension for it or should i make a rear driveshaft too. thanks

Ok a little more background on the vehicle, and who's lift did you install? Did YOU install it. Why 7 inches, and OH WE NEED PICS.

Not sure what is binding in the rear, the CSB should be in line with the t-case. Is it the rear CV or u-joint that is binding?

Might consider eliminating the CSB and put in a 1 piece drive shaft in the back.

what kind of INFO do you guys need?

i can't remember which years the CSB was put on the trucks...but i know it was only a few years.

i believe the truck has been SAS'd cuz i don't remember the 79-85 trucks having a 2 piece driveshaft..

he has crossover steering..and a 7" lift. lol what other info would be helpful in this situation?

type of motor shouldn't matter?

it's an ext. cab pickup...because it has a 2piece driveshaft.

Ya Ill get some pics up asap. As for some more background its an 85 ext cab. trailgear hysteer conversion and skyjacker lift. The added height has put my driveshaft at more of a angle goin to the csb. Ive reclocked both 3rds to correct the pinion alignment but it doesnt help the csb. Oh not sure if it would help but its blue lol.

Apparently Not! lol Personally, I would eliminate the CSB and have a longer driveshaft made. Especially if it's on a seriously lifted truck.
