How much front driveshaft slip?

[imiceman44]

I already did that too. I haven't twisted it by lifting the front yet, or gotten to take it wheeling....

The longest the driveshaft will go is with a jump that drops both sides at the same time and the weight transfer from bump to droop will give the most droop out of the springs.
Once you go past the 4.5" of stock slip it doesn't matter how much you need, you will need a long slip.
My local place built my 1310 cv long slip with 18" slip for $450 including clearance the cv for maximum flex.
The 18" slip is the same price as the tom woods 10" and it has longer spline engagement on the female end.
Next day service it was ready

You don’t happen to know the part number they used?

It's custom parts.
The splined piece is 20" long, and the yoke has splines and gets welded on.
Then the female end is a 2 female splines with 4" of tube connecting them.
I will ask if they have part numbers but I could also give you their number.
They are in west Sacramento, CA
They ship

He's probably talking about Drive Line Service of Sacramento (916) 371-3332 https://www.drive-lines.com/dlssac.com/index.html

Good guys with a quick turnaround, I just had another rear shaft made by them a couple weeks ago.

Not of the top of my head.
