Have looked in the bible but unable to find anything there that helps.

Can someone point me in the right direction of how/where to get info on extending the slipyoke on the front drive shaft??

Cheers

Get a "custom" RHS one made or do it properly and go see a driveshaft shop and have a long slip made and balanced to suit.

Note the RHS and lockedup ones maybe noisy as they are not balanced.

I would think the locktup ones would be fine. As long as they're aligned correctly when welded, they'd be fine. An SHS one on the other hand.....will be noisy as all hell! I know I've been using one for years! At least they don't fail and you can get plenty of slip out of them.
