driveshaft spline engagement

Post by bad_religion_au »

How much spline engagement at ride height do most standard driveshafts have? i've stretched my wheelbase and have one that might work... depending on the answer to this question of course ;)

couldn't really say for sure but you'd think that an inch or two would be plenty, just more gotta worry about it falling out when flexing dont you?
