what’s the max we can lower the drive shaft, I have rough country 6” lift and I’m getting terrible clunk when accelerating. It’s almost like the torque grabbing my rear axle and creaking type noise. Wonder if I dropped the carrier bearing lower if the drive line angles would be better and not yank the drive shaft so much

6”?! Wow. My rear is around 4.5” I’d estimate. I have the carrier bearing spacer dropping it that much, but also adjusted the rear control arms and replaced the driveshaft. The dana 1350 driveshaft I have is rated for 6.6”, and is bolt on.
