| Measured it then I went to RC4WD's site. I dont think the measurement will help much because I only used the male end of the the shaft with the YJ Trailfinder stock female end. The male end I used is 2.75 inches. The shafts on their site measure the whole shaft range end to end with both male and female parts.

Can't wait to see the top on. I still don't think I've seen one other than mine yet! Let me know if you run into any trouble.

| Got a little more done... R2 tranny in place Here is a free plug for RPP Hobby Their Outback Series R2 tranny skid plate has a great finish and fits flush. Nice product! I am doing some work on the 5 lug classic wheel so I swapped them out for the steelies. Looks good but I'm sticking with the 5 lugs... Another very cool product from RPP's Outback Series. Rear bumper with added on swing out! Leafs a flexin' |

Thanks guys... Chassis is set up Primed and ready for some paint. Still undecided. I usually choose the color at the last second. Hence some of my odd color choices for some of my rigs Not sure what I am going to do for a front bumper so I just chopped it for now... |

Dude, you are a building maniac lately I really need to find some times and sit in the basement and get my build(s) on... I think you should toss some revolver shackles on this beast |

I mounted the RC4WD shooter shackles but because RC4WD is hit or miss with their products (I had to use OG Bruiser leafs to stretch the wheelbase on this kit) The shackles are flexed pretty far outward and the shooter shackles were such a tight fit. I may tinker with them again and try to work them in because I bought a set specifically for this Jeep. Thanks bro, Just finished the TJ. Last update is in the 1.9 section... | |
