How high can I lift before even a SYE/CV shaft won't stop vibes? It looks like I'll be getting a 4.5" RE SF lift, and I eventually want to do a tummy tuck... Would that combo be too much for the SYE/CV? If so, will the 4.5" kit with 3.5" springs be ok?

How much is too much?
If we aren't supposed to eat animals, then why are they made out of meat?

vibes won't be a problem with an sye/cv as long as you've got the pinion angle dialed in correctly.
you may run into over extension of a 1310 cv with a belly up skid. I've limited the downtravel of my rear dif to save driveshafts.

most double cardan drive shafts will allow 25-35 degrees of movement without binding.
this is an example of a "high angle" double cardan driveshaft. $$$
the 25-30* max is what prompted Brian to use the limit straps.

i am not suggesting you get the one in the picture. it is for demonstration purposes only.
from what i understand, it is less than dessirable on the road.
you should be fine with the standard CV driveshaft, and limit straps. you can also grind out a bit more clearance in there to get the full 35*.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

you guys are on the right track. I was reffering to cv bind not overall driveshaft length.

Good to know, thanks Brian. I'll have to make sure my angle isn't too much once I get them both on! (Lift is still probably a couple months away, tummy tuck, at least half a year.)If we aren't supposed to eat animals, then why are they made out of meat?
