Default legthen d shaft or get longer yoke.



here is my problem. the d-shaft i bought is an inch to short. how much does it usually cost to get a aluminum d-shaft lengthened? or would it be better for me to buy a longer yoke.

Longer yoke is cheaper and easier.

I don't know the spine count but you can find the yoke at the speedengineering website. They are sponsors here.

Si Senor, it would be a 4l60e if thats what came on the truck
