[QUOTE="PRP, post: 12628804, member: 97061"] Tob, My apologies for shitting on your thread. I am having private e-mail conversation with Justin as I write this and there HAVE been some very important details that I discovered that IMO will affect the outcome (aka "blame") of this situation. I told Justin he could present it if he wants to or I can...It's his decision. ON TOPIC: When PST asks for the shaft length, they expect you to provide them with the measurement from the transmission flange FACE to the CV joint flange LIP. I believe Mark (@ PST) said the lip is 3/16" deep. It MIGHT have been 3/8" (It was via phone so I have no written record of it) but that should be easy enough to see with a pinion flange in hand. I had my DS out and provided Mark with the [B]Flange to Flange[/B] (F-t-F) measurement and he calculated the correct length from that. My measurement (F-t-F) was 51-3/16" so my new shaft should be 51" if I understand Mark correctly. I WILL be measuring it since finding the new details I found. Your shaft measurement, using the flat on the CV joints is 50". The first PST shaft I got was 51-3/4" long, using the same points you used. Mine NOW would need to be 51-3/16" using your same points of reference (51" to the outside LIP of the rear flange) and believe me, I WILL be measuring it (live and learn)! Does that make sense? It's hard to be real clear via text. Phill [/QUOTE]
