front drive shafts for 4 inch lift

[Johnny Hirt]

i installed a 4 inch lift on my 1975 k20 sm465 np205 the front driveshaft slip yoke is seized which caused the cv to fail. the stock shaft for a manual trans is 24.5" compressed while with an auto it's 27.75" I'm just curious if that extra 3.25" is too long for just a 4 inch lift or not. I just want to avoid getting a stock shaft and it not being long enough or being maxed out yada yada. curious if it'll work or not. thankyou!

Considering stock shaft works its probably too long

Get measurements and take the longer shaft to a local shop to have it shortened. It’s easy for a shop to shorten a shaft.
