My 84 blazer has a 6" suspension lift which was fine till I got a rebuilt 91 trans now my rear shaft is 3" to short it drives decent until you try to put in 4wd. Was wondering if there was a way I could just rotate the back axle about 20 degrees to fix the angle of the shaft then it would be long enough

I doubt that would make up 3". Check the frame at the t-case crossmember and see if there are 1" spacers on the bolts that hold the crossmember to the frame. They put them on top of the frame, you can put a jack under the t-case, unbolt it, let it down a little and put the spacers between the crossmember and frame to drop the rear 1". I doubt that would make up the 3" either but it is easier to do than wedge the rear. If it's the same trans/t-case models you had before you may need a longer rear driveshaft.
