Drive shaft length ???

Has anyone had to lengthen their drive shaft, I just put the new rear end in and under full load with the jack stands under the 8 3/4 rear end I can push the drive shaft all the way in until it bottoms out in the trans and then I can pull it back about 1 1/2 inches until it rest in the yoke of the rear end. Besides that I'm pretty sure I have to get the bigger u-joint in the rear it is way too small.

Depends on the length of the slip yoke, if it's 4" and you got 1.5 out that means you got 2.5 on the bushing, if you have a 5" yoke then you got 3.5" on the bushing and then you're ok
