Cranking torsion bars too much??

[Marlin]

I've had the diff drop for about 5 years...


...and no cuff issues... YET!


Good to know though...
..and luckily I have a spare complete front shaft if I ever need it

It depends on how much you dropped the diff. At the time, I was nose high in the air on the front end, and Joe did a decent drop, will need to measure to see how much. I would say an inch is probably fine, and does a world of good for the CVs, so well worth it IMO. I will not be repalcing the shaft again, I will have one of the shops fab a universal joint shaft to go in its place. Shouldn't be too expensive, hardest part will be keeping the original bolt pattern, or fabbing an adaptor to make it work.

Mines a T/bren drop...so 2.5 inches IIRC

Lets see what your poll results indicate.
