4) the 4.90/4.636 interchange still worries me. You can't run it like that in 4WD

3) just called a friend. So there's only one reputable driveline shop in nyc and they charged him $300 to shorten a drive shaft an inch. That is not an option then. Hell, send it down here, I'll go get it done. That's ridiculous.

Landraider wrote that redrilling the flange would work. I'll do that if I must.

But, I see gen2, m/s,and gen1 v6 all use the same u joint. Its just the 2.6 with a different setup. Soooo if all gen1 have a km100 transfer case, cant I use an 89 drive shaft or is it a different length?
