Taking out the drops bracket diff?

[explorermatt001]

I've got the superlift front kit on my exploder. its a 4 inch kit that uses drop brackets. i recently got a new extended front driveshaft, is it posible to take that drop differential out and just connect the a arms to the stock differential. I dont see why not since i have the longer driveshaft in there. any suggesttions would be great.

think about what would happen to you cv angles if you do this

true, i know that is a huge concern. right now the driveshaft slopes insanely downward, i just figured that without the drop bracket it would be somehwere near straight (from the tranny to the axle). Do you think that would cause binding. thanks for the info, i am by no means just going to go in there and rip tings out

it would. i have (I think) Offroad Mag that has slip joint cv halfshaft which are made for chevy trucks.. something like that would help with bind but the cv joint would grenade soon. if you got the superlift shaft you'll be fine from what i have read. (going with a custom shaft with the rcd lift soon myself)
