wont be a tail shaft spacer, you will find you will need th lengthen the drive shaft.

It moves the diff forward plus adds lift.

Tail shaft spacers make the angle of thew front uni more and will likely cause it too vibrate/ bind up.

nah mate, not unless you are a machinist and can make your own, you usually only buy a 25mm one... yours will need to be bigger then that, install the ruf and measure it... for the effort and price just extend the drive shaft.
