Well, the Yukon ones I have in my garage measure 29.75" and when the gear guys went to install my locker and 4.88s and those Yukons they said the shafts were too short.

I believe the XJ 8.25 shafts are shorter than the KJ shafts and I have XJ shafts that need to be returned.

This page says that Yukon shafts are 30 7/8".

Oh, and thank you Tom.

Correct Tom. THey were in Seths IFS KJ for a while so they gotta be the right ones. I know they wouldn't fit my XJ so thats why I sold them.
