Well Nick nails it again . Spoke to him before he said he seen this once and believes it was when Kris first did the after market block in his car . Told me to put some weight on the rear wheels to simulate ride height . Sure enough this f u ker picked up over an inch of play now before it bottoms out . And I don't have the full weight on the floor just my jack holding the weight of the pumpkin . Will get better as the car is on the ground so I think I am golden !

That's how much exposed shaft you end up with again not full weight on it . That's just the jack on the pumpkin off the jack-stands . There is a full inch or more of room before it were to bottom out at this point . At ride height I don't see it being a issue . Considering like Nick said the only time the axle will hang that much is in this situation . What do you think ?

It'll be ok if you do indeed get an extra 3/4 from what I'm seeing if your rear end is not at ride height. I just assumed that that was the pic of the thing when it was all said and done

No that's only the pumpkin jacked up just off the rear jack stands . Once it's on the ground I'll recheck . If not I have someone who will shorten and re balance already lined up for 150
