Hey gang!

My build is almost complete. Only think holding it up at this point is apparently a binding issue on my drive shaft. My builder swapped the axles and rebuilt the 14 bolt FF. I had him add a ORD traction bar and disc brakes. Now he states the joint at the 14 bolt yoke and the drive shaft binds under load. I feel his pinion angle is the issue. What are my options? Have him check the angle or go with a CV type shaft set up? I'd like a 1 ton shaft anyway as I am still using the stock one. Oh, I have a 4" rough country lift as well. TIA!
 
Was the stock driveshaft shortened? 14bff has a longer pinion than 10b or 12b.

Pics ar needed
