[84c10Tony]

Aww Crap!

Ooops, mighta' done did it now
I do try to contain myself, sumtimes poop jus' pops out.

Oh, I get it now after deep considerate thinking, like "Hi, I am a GMaholic, and my 305 is powerless"

Oh damn, sure don't tell them about the poop thread til they've been here awhile. That tends to scare people when they think they have to report it everytime they take a ****.

Can I PM someone with a drivetrain question I’m currently in a bind and I don’t know what to do.

 

[CSFJ]

You can pm anyone, but posting the question you have in mind may help in narrowing down who would know the most about your issue.

hello all,
I am at a complete loss. I have a 1982 K10 single cab long bed trying to put front drive shaft in after a 4” pro comp suspension lift. The rear end of the front driveshaft bolts up against the 4 bolt square pattern front yoke on the NP 208C diffential. The double joint part of the Drive shaft hits the top of the transmission crossmember and I am unable to bolt it up and attach the ujoints with the straps at the front differential. Can someone please tell me what to do to make it work? Thanks guys

Did you put the spacers between the frame and cross member or are they in the stock location.

 

[NineLine89]

I will snap some photos in a few just got off work. As far as spacers. I do not believe there are any. Be back with photographic evidence ASAP.

There is about a 1/4” of clearance between the top of the crossmember and the double joint cardin? on the drive shaft and about 1” of clearance between the drive shaft and the exhaust pipe. Also there is about 2” of extension on the front of the drive shaft where it slides in and out where my finger is in the picture for reference. I️ hope my photos are good enough to explain what i’m Talking about. Thanks so much guys. Standing by for y’alls expertise.

There should be spacers on the bolts. It appears some one put shorter bolts and tossed the spacers. How does the trans mount look is it broken?
