Default Re: 9" rear in a jailbar truck

Just got off the phone with Driveline Services in Bellingham. They built my driveshaft last year. Looks like I need a conversion joint. Both are 3 1/4" wide, one has 1 1/16" caps, other has 1 1/8". They have one in stock and should have the the u-bolt straps too. Owner will call and confirm when he gets in. UPS from Bellingham normally arrives next day. This joint is a spicer #5-7439 and the straps are as in the post above 2-94-58x. Hope this helps the next guy someday.
