Mike and Robert,

Mike,

The differentials are different in size and length due to the power divider on the front tandem. When the back tandem is moved forward, a longer drive shaft has to be manufactured using a new longer tube and sometimes a new yoke has to be installed on one end. The company that will be manufacturing the new driveshaft should do all the memasurements. If you mismeasure, you will have to pay for two new driveshafts.

When the new driveshaft is installed, the angle should be checked to make certain the alignment is correct. The U Joints should also be greased after installation.


Robert,

I have not yet sold a conversion to a race car hauler.
