Okay, so I finally got around to installing the WJ parts on my libby, and installing JBA's 4 inch rear spring and got 23 inches in the rear, like exactly 23 inches. :) so happy... soo... soo happy :) (Not like the front !!!tabournaque!!!)

but this is bad right?

6.5 inches??

can somebody who is lifted 4 inches please measure theirs and get back to me. I am afraid to drive this thing as I feel "wobble" in the slip yoke, just a little bit, but its there, and its scary.

Jeez I hope its okay. Like, how long is the bloody output shaft?

I just occurred to me... I can just undo the rear ujoint and slide it back and forth to measure play. but never the less, can somebody please measure theirs.

I'll measure mine later for you.
I'm over 23 inches and have been for at least 160,000-170,000 miles

Thanks mate.

I put WJ rear lowers, they are a tad longer than KJ arms, so I'm a bit nervous.

*face palm*

Can somebody who is stock also please take the same measurement I have and post back here? I have an np231j for the record. Not sure if the 242 and 231 have two different tail shaft lengths.

Nevermind. I sent off a dxf to the shop for a 3/4" spacer. If I loose my shaft, i can always just go thicker.
