Drive Shaft Set Up?
Drive Shaft Set Up?
Ok well when i put on this 12inch Rize i will be needing a new drive shaft and plan on going with a double cardan joint driveshaft. I might get it from PST but not sure yet. Just trying to get opinions here on if im in the right direction in looking for a drive shaft by going double cardan joint? Also what else do i need to look into? Pinion angle? Im a noob when it comes to driveshafts. So bare with me. But i will be running 14inches of lift front/rear as of now. Thats if the blocks that OGTERROR sent me come in and hopefully someone didnt steal them while i was out of town for a few days.
Next set of questions is what exactly is my drive shaft set up now?

Rear Diff:


Now id rather sound like an idiot on here than call these places looking for qoutes or ask how much a certain set up is going to cost me and not know whats on my truck now. So if you really wanna flame me then go ahead i dont care

try getting ahold of mercedes tech, or someone else really knowledgeable on the board. driveshaft tech around here is generally limited to either adding a spacer, or lengthening the oem driveshafts.
i don't know that much about the various another driveshaft types other than oem.
