Default Driveshaft Problem Solved

First of all, thanks to everyone who offered advice on my problem with my driveshaft. Anyway, turns out it was the trans yoke. It was a little tight and needed more than just routine "persuasion" to get it to actually slip. A few well placed "love taps" :smash: and it came around to my way of thinking. I should be back in the saddle again soon :steering: Thanks again.

:hurray:
Glad you got it figured out. I did learn a few things from the thread, I'm sure many of us appreciate the post. One day I'm going to install a 200r4 which is not supposed to require a different drive shaft. Now if I encounter that shortness problem, I'll know what to do! :smash:

I'm just proud of you for admitting your "shaft" was too short. :D
