The greasable jointz seemed like a good idea until I got them installed and realized that the cant be greased installed on an aluminum drive. The yokes are thicker and get in the way of the grease gun. ---

Buddy I would be coming to you if I wasn’t already on board with getting one of these: With the 4l80 being slightly longer than the stock 4l60 I cant use the OEM aluminum drive shaft, regardless of me sticking with a stock rear end or going with the build 8.8 ford I have to use. So for $350 I can get a custom length, balanced 4l80 input shaft and ford 8.8 happy other side that will hold and underrated 800hp. > [@New challenger in my parking lot](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-challenger-in-my-parking-lot/45815/19): > > When will this run? Sunday morning the car is getting dropped off. Sunday afternoon v6/5 speed will be out. Tomorrow if the cape cod dude gets back to me I will be going down to pick up an entire LS1 front end; K member, rack, mounts, rotor to rotor, suspension, etc. Make this a bolt on affair. Then comes the fun shit. Updates most likely will remain off the radar here until its doing a burnout. unless I cant contain myself and feel the need to drop little clues along the way.
