the best thing for u to do is to go to a dismantling yard with a tape measure
if u arent lifting this truck to high factory drive shafts are fine
i have a surf with 4" suspetion lift and drive shafts are right on the limit im gona get mine lenghened
some other drive shafts may fit i think that ifs LN130 front drive shafts are about 50mm longer
if this dosent help post more info like what springs ur useing are u moving front diff fowred????????????
are u changing anything or just putting new diff heads in?????????????
