It is with the rear down lower than normal ride height. I am going to check my measurements after I get the truck back on the ground.

Also, I have a copy of that table with the transmission lengths. My 6l80 doesn't quite seem to match. It seems to be about 3/4 of an inch short. But I will get it figured out. The worst thing that could happen is I need a new driveshaft.

It is in and running. I took it for a little test drive and it seems to be working ok right now. It differently will need some fine tuning but it WORKS. Yeahhhhhh.

Just installed the new cluster and the shifter goes in tomorrow.

I am off to eat dinner, so I will update with more details later tonight.
