Im the picture i wrote 30, but its 35, i re-measured.. anyway how do i know how much of a shim i need? Do i need to measure the drive shaft? And if so just to the CV joint or the whole length including the splined end? :confused:

You have a CV ? With a CV you point the pinion at the transfercase , down a hair to allow it to move up when giving it throttle . Most of the time a shackle flip does it just right to begin with . Lift springs you will need move it so the pinion is about inline with the shaft in the pic you posted .
