And you still didn't measure it...

Curious, Will you be taking the axle shafts out of this at any point in the future?

as for the 32spline input shafts, there's a guy on here who's been making them for a decade.
It's the coupler in the transfer case that gets re-splined at least on the NVG149. Other cases like the 4x4 case that are used in both the 1500 and 2500 applications you can just purchase an Oem coupler that already has the correct spline.

You Should never put a 27 Spline output shaft in a 4L80e unless you enjoy Blowing Big Trannies...

I have the shafts out of one of mine, what do you need? I meant to put them in yesterday and measure but then carport construction took precedence

I didn’t know you actually wanted a measurement I can get it this evening.

I don’t see a need to take the shafts out and don’t really want to if I don’t have too.

Finished cleaning up the axle and hit it with a quick coat of primer just so it doesn't flash rust overnight. Also smoothed the caliper faces even though it's not necessary for clearance on this set of wheels you never know what the future holds and I think they look better smooth-faced. Pulled off the 1350 yoke and slapped on the 1410 while I was fiddle phucking around as well.

I wish you were local, I'd help you with the grinding to get rid of that "speed bump" phenomena where the bracket used to be

How's it feel to be the first guy to butcher an H2 axle to use under a pickup?!

OMG OMG OMG!!! Am I really the first!? Do I get a cookie!? Moderators can I have a special award under my name please?

What would you do to get rid of the speed bump? I really don't care because the runs in the chassis saver paint will probably be more noticable but curious as to what the procedure would be.

And you also are the first to put T1XX front brakes for your rear.
