i am swapping out stock suzuki driveshafts with toyota driveshafts. i have them cut to lengths and balanced but the front driveshaft won't handle the extreme angle to the front 3rd member. the crossmember also seems to be in the way. i have seen some of the articles of people modifying the u-joints to accept a larger angle for a cv shaft. but can i do that for a rear toyota driveshaft? can i also grind down the crossmember to make room.
 another quick fix i thought of was to angle the t-case a little bit by putting spacers under the rear mount? would this be the easiest and safest way?

your asking a geometry question, im intrieged but what are the parameters? toyota drivelines and......?where are your t-case outputs in realation to stock? what lift do you have? is this a stock crossmember? what engine/ tourqe?  solid motor mounts? suspesion contortion? all these come into play on driveline clearance, id like to bs with you on this

  I think you may be using the wrong toy shaft for the front. If you do not want to hack your crossmember and point the front diff up to the tcase. You need a ifs rear driveshaft for their ample amount of angleage at the joint, due to the long ears holding the ujoint.

i've put toyota axles under my sammy with three inch lifted sammy springs from trail gear (yeah, i know it would've been alot easier to do the yj conversion), im running the stock t-case with the adapter plates bolted to the t-case flange. my front driveshaft came from the bed of a truck in a junkyard so im not 100% sure where it came from. there were no straight axle trucks around so im pretty sure its and ifs rear driveshaft. i really don't want to point the 3rd member of the front axle up to the t-case because i don't want to mess with the steering geometry at all. i don't think changing the fron pinion angle up would even help at all since the main binding point is the u-joint at the t-case.

i kinda had the crazy idea of putting spacers under the rear t-case mount to angle the t-case downward. but i don't know what would happen there.

hit me with some input please!!!
