The problem is , not wanting to just step away from Subaru...LOL

Then at least you could have some real suspension. :)

I like the Subaru and hey its makin me a living, should hit the trail next weekend , still want to take a dualrange and add some real lower gears in the low range area, might take some welding and machine work with some added parts

Ah, I get it...the center is a trunion joint.

Correct?

 

It's a DOJ type CV.

 

Looks like a late 90's legacy driveline.  Some models have this type, others it's just a Ujoint.

 

My thought is that it won't have enough slip.  it's not a slip yoke.  When that axle starts going up and down that joint may not have enough travel.

 

Scott, look into Nissan and Izuzu drivelines.  Same input ends at the trans, and flange at the axle.  Get 2wd model one from nissan will have slip section in it.
