In a previous post I questioned getting a gear vendor for my k30 and in the response's I got it seemed pretty positive so I picked one up with all the adapter's needed for 700 bones, couldn't pass it up. In the process I am lifting my truck another 1 inch using some zero rates from ORD. I'll be right around 7 inches of lift, reason for the lift is I also just picked up some 37's and DO NOT want to trim. A year ago I was all about it but I've changed my mind. Sooo I am wondering if I may be getting myself into a pickle here with drive shaft angle problems. -Gear Vendor which requires you shorten your drive shaft- 1 inch lift which increase angle- I am wondering if the amount I have to cut off the shaft will decrease slightly due to the lift but ain't no expert in this. Need help from the pros

Thanks
 
You should have plenty of driveshaft to deal with the angle Trevor, shouldn't be a problem at all. You may have to readjust the pinion angle in the rear a bit.

Where do you get a gear vendors for 700? Punk

Really want to get one and put it my dually
 
Nice good to hear it Eric...I actually scored it off a buddy of mine who had bought a dually with it already on it and he's doing a cummin's swap so he sold it to me. I'm also thinking about a 1 inch body lift but would rather not if I can get the 37's to clear with the 1 inch suspension upgrade.
