Topic: shortbed dualcase

[toyotanner]

anyone have any problems with pinion when you have shortbed wheelbase and dualcases?  also going flatbelly...
just thinking about potential problems i may run into.

before my wreck, i never had a problem  with it,  since??  well i havent driven it  but  like 2mph

i just dont want my pinions to be to messed up to drive on the road.

[Hyena]

not, it will be fine.  you might need to get a cv for the rear driveline though.

i could put a pinion shim in the rear to right? just to give it a little more help 

[Duffil]

if you run a CV in the rear shaft then yes.  if you run regular ujoint ends, you want the flanges to be parallel (||) if you run a CV you want the pinion to point at the tcase output. (|/)

maybe i'll just have to mock it all up and see what the best route is...
unless someone has had success with that setup already.

Absolutely, mock it up.  Find out 1st hand if it'll work for your rig.

Other items to consider.. Amount of lift.  Tranny you'll use.

Wseries, duals, shortbed, CV rear, no-cv front, ~3"lift, axle wedges in both axles, did very well on the road.  Didn't last very long though, rocks love drivelines.   

HAD, .12 wall..

Works fine in my '85 runner...    CV rear shaft of course.
