Just started digging into the drive train and found out the rear drive shaft on my 1980 CJ5 is too long, at static height it was under full compression. After taking it off I measured the static height at 13 and 5/8 from center to center. Anyone possibly know a easy switch from another vehicle who might have had this problem? I was going to cut it down but turns out it was decently worn out. I most likely will have to buy a new used one but am hoping I don't have to buy and cut the next one down as it costs $110 just for cutting and balancing. Anyone have one for sale or knowledge of a fix for me?
