Ken,
That's two of us. I'm glad it's just about over...however, one question, just out of curiousity, what would your "paid people" have done that I wouldn't or didn't?
My problem with the driveshaft being too short has nothing to do with anyone installing it. Apparently there must be some differences in vehicles when they are installed.
I doubt your tech did anything different than I did to install your kit. Unfortunately, my truck just didn't like the 3/4" shorter length.
The kit requires two modifications. One being the shaving of the mount on the front diff and a plate welded on the end of where a motor mount was. Other than that, it's a direct bolt-in.
I have designed, built, modified every jetski, 4wheeler, boat, motorcycle, truck and car I have ever owned. Over the last 20 some years of modding vehicles, I have spent more than my share of time and money cutting, welding, modding and installing about everything.
I think the trick is to know what you can't and can't do. That is why my stereo installer is coming over Sunday to install my navigation and cameras. It's not that I can't do it, I just suck at it.... and when it comes time to install the supercharger, though I have installed them before, I want a pro to do this one.
I am glad however, that your installation when on without a hitch but then again, most people don't have my stupid luck...lol.
Mark
