i was wondering if i could use a rear driveshaft on the front on my lwb since i am putting a 4age in which means i have to move the t/case back and i am putting rears up front which will move the front diff forward would this make enough room to run a rear shaft up front

my guess is you would just have to see,
too many variables, how far you are moving your tcase back, how far you are moving your front diff forward, how long LWB rear driveshafts are normally..

my guess you will need longer then standard.

Id agree with spike, SWB front shaft is about 200mm longer than a rear so my guess is a lenghtend or spaced front is your best bet.

yes you can do that,just measure everything.
i think the lwb rear shaft 200mm longer than the front
