    Drive Shaft lengthening

    Getting ready to take the drive shaft to the shop for lengthening. Can anyone tell me by the pics if this is the correct way to measure the added length I will need. Or is there some special way to do it. Any information would be appreciated.

    does anyone know what this steel plate is for?

    My truck started out as a m109, but when I got it the box was already taken off. I think you have figured it out the plates must be there to protect the box and frame from improper wear. Thank for the info. Tim

    A little progress this weekend, every time I take something off I feel it should be cleaned and painted. Had to make a few bracket/spacers in the rear to help level out the bolt pattern, my last hole drilled for the back hanger fell between the cross support and frame. Here are couple of pics.

    I have no way to weight it exactly but it feels to be about 800 to 900 pounds. I used a Harbor Freight lift to move it and it lifted it easily.

    RedbeardTheZombieHunter; Do you know what material to use to lift it 6 inches. What I am asking is there a certain type of material that is more safe than others, medial tubing, spacers, bushings ?

    I don't know if anyone has used this method to remove rivets but if not it works great . I call it the rotor hammer technique. It will pop the rivets right out.
