high angle drive line?

[brnbomr]

i have a 93 ex and i now have a full whith d44 but the prob is that it has to much drop in the front to connect any kind of drive shaft with out it binedind and breaking at full drop. is there any way to set up this with out spending to much. i am a college student and do not have that much money. i will weald or cut some things if i have to.

You can limit the front drop with limiting straps or chains, but it sounds more like a problem with not having the pinion angle set up properly.

There are A LOT of rigs out there with massive amounts of front rise/drop that run traditional dshafts and ujoints without breaking them.

i have straps and i use them. i know there are trucks with front drop that will mess with your head. so i can not figure out why this is so difficult to do. i took the ex to a drive shop that has been there for over 30 years and they said that for a 1330 yoke the stock spicer off the 91 94s are all i will get. so i am stuck. there are one for a **** load of money but you know how that gos.

Is it a wedge style D44 with Ford radius arms? Do you have pipnion correction shims installed?
I assume this is a low pinion D44.

it is a 78-79 d44 high pinion. i have tom woods 1330 u joint on the bottom. i did find a store in AZ that has a large angle cv joint, its called the bad boy jr and it looks to work. i have not called them yet so il have to see. the only thing is that it is $325 that is more than i am willing to spend, but i might have to if it works right. im still serching for some thing cheaper or better. il keep this page informed. if you hear of any thing let me know.http://www.arizonadrivelines.com
