1993 ford explorer xlt
ok so i put a 8" skyjacker lift in my girlfriends 93 explorer , got the full lift brackets and coils , no coil spacers or anything , when i engage the 4x4 the pasenger side axle shaft seems to rub , looks like its rubbing on the housing out by the knuckle , had it all alligned after i did the lift new balljoins , and ujoints the whole works , the main question is that the driveshaft i put in it has been lengthend , it bareley fits in , the slip yolk is pushed right in , could the driveshaft be pushing the whole front end forward and causeing the axle shaft to rub , i had almost the same problem in my ranger the radius arm bushing where shot causing the front end to be out of line , but the radius arm bushing are brand new in the explorer so i cant see that being the problem any info would be awsome as i have been trying to figure this out for a while lol

thanx
