Well just talked to DD machine and the doublers will be done in a few weeks so I am planning on a 231 doubler infront of a flipped dana 300.
Just decided I should start my own thread so I can feel special.

I hope u plan on extending the wheelbase, or the thats gonna be a crazy short rear drive. good luck
it's not much longer than a regular 231.
how much longer we talking? a rear TJ driveshaft is short when stock
Yeah, but on a TJ you have about 2" of actual driveshaft after the CV, and a kickass driveline angle w/ a 4" lift on a SYE 231. Maybe the Standard makes it better?
a high pinion in the rear would prolly make it easier, but if the transfercase combo is much longer than stock I bet you have to lengthen the wheelbase.
you should really find a trashed jeep to do all this to and ot your daily dri.... oh wait, nevermind, your good to go.
the driveshaft angle will be fine as long as you dont get any more lift or do a flat skid.
i haven't measured the length of the 231 w/ sye, but the lenght of the doubler and 300 will be around 18 inches. pretty much the same lenght as the 231 is right now.
I may have to to a MML to get the angles better but i don't plan on adding anymore lift
Right now I am have 5 inches of tube between the CV and slip shaft
yep, thats what I am doing
That has the length comparisons in the text somewhere. I read it but when I posted the link I was too tired to look them up again. Looks like you'll gain a little length in your shaft... :rainbow:
yeah about an inch
so, let me get one thing straight. What you're doing is similar to the Mad Rooster version, but you're having it done by DD machine? Is there a difference between the two?
I'd guess that he won't be paying that exhorbitant butt-pirate price for his.
