    I have some longer ones, and I've never parted out a 4 door.

    Hey BADDAD is RIGHT ON its not the snout that bottoms out insidethe tail shaft. Its the splinded tail shaft that bottoms out inside the splined snout. Cutting the snout wont do it. Get a new shaft made for it $195 around here.

    Good info guys :thumbs2: so it seems it will be fine the way it is now. i was worried that the snout would pop out with as much gap as i have between the balancer and the tail shaft, seems like thats not the case.
