If you need your axle to be "in the same place", DON'T dick with the axle adjustment.
How do you figure ? There is no driveshaft length problem with my car. Its just close, thats all. The front yoke does not bottom out on the T400 output shaft at any point, it can't.
Not sure why you say its a driveshaft length problem ?
Just looking for how many half turns to take up the .100 distance I am pushing the rear U joint back.
Looks like 1 1/2 half turns of the front rod ends will bring the rear ..125 forward after pushing it back .100
So I gain .025 more room getting the rear U joint out of the yoke for drive line removal and 1 1/2 threads more engagement on my rod ends.
Win,win.
.025 is close enough. Will never notice it and a lot easier than shortening and re-balancing my Strange drive line.

BTW, who makes the good 1350 U joints these days ? The kind with no grease zerk. These have been on forever, still in good shape.
