Long spline driveshaft issues
 

I have run into a bit of a snag. I had my driveshaft made using the TG long spline kit and my stock front CV section. It does not even have enough clearance to bolt up at ride height. I know that this setup has been used by others on here with more lift than I have (TG 3" SAS). It is not being limited by the sides of the CV, but rather the lip/rin on the inner "ball" section that it pivots on. Can I clearance this somehow or is there a better fix? I really do not want to fork out the cash for a Tom Woods or High Angle just yet.

I've the IFS CV + TG yoke with 4'' springs. I haven't noticed any clearance problem But I've a HP diff. Also it will be better angle now I'm swapping to an auto.

Not enough degrees of freedom in the IFS CV, if I recall correctly, half that of SFA.

I can't even bolt it up at ride height. I'm cutting and rotating the axle on Monday. This is really the only way that it'll truly be correct. I may not even have to clearance the stock CV.

Just for clarification, is this front or rear?

:guitar:

Front. The rear is beautiful.

You either need to clearance your IFS CV or use a CV from a sold axle shaft. That's it. Don't go turning your knuckles. Mine didn't line up either, I used a SFA CV and it bolted right up.

Here's mine with SFA CV. I'm runninuals now so my angle is much better than this pic.
