I could have E-mailed you directly, but I thought this might be interesting and relevent to share.

My CV joint as it sits right now is at maximum angle without binding. In other words, if my axle goes down any, I'm screwed. I have a stock D44 that I'm going to replace with a high pinion D60 if I can ever get a pair lined up.

So, the question is, will the RP60 give me enough play for axle droop? Right now I have NUN! If you don't think so, what are my options? Does the next size bigger joint allow for more of an angle? Am I worrying for no reason?

Have you always been this stupid?

Jeeper

okay in the pic your sittin at about 29 degree's and that is maxed out 32 is it- is your diff rolled up to match that driveline angle ? - the pic does not show me that- also can you drop your case at all? on a short unit like that wil will help dramtically on angles- thanks for postin up pics- the next joint up is 1410 and it will surly vibrate like hell at that angle - and 32 is max on that one too- Jess:D

Jim, do you have a motor mount lift on there?

Dear 1badjeep Scott

I never made the connection ! Thanks mister Obvious, you're a lifesaver !

Seriously, I meant NO disrespect to Jesse, just a little :flipoff2:

To answer the questions

Dan - I have the MORE 1" motor mount lift.

Jesse - The pinion is at the correct angle. I can't really space down the crossmember. My Output is higher than normal due to the RE crossmember, 700-R4, AA mounting adapter combo. It is really solid and that's what I wanted.

I guess my question is when I get the right axle - RP60 - It should come up about a yoke length. Will it be enough for normal operation?

Here is the Tranny Mount - Before I replaced the Yoke

I realize you don't want to hear this but the t-case will most likly have to be dropped- because running a high pinion will only make your angles more at the diff - and then it will not run smooth - you would probebly have like a 12 degree positive angle on the rear joint to get your driveline angle to a 20 or so degree angle at the t-case making it not bottom out- i hope this makes sence- -give me a ring if you can if it does not-jess 530-877-2875
