Hey Anders. I've got to admit that some of the traditions over there seem odd to me. I would try the 'dancing around the ribbonned pole' thing here but I've heard the asylums in Nebraska are already over-booked. I guess I'll just stick to hiding colored eggs around my yard, using explosives, and displaying zombies.

I can't say I disagree on how odd the traditions are. It's like they've been told from father to son for a thousand years and both parties have been drunk so a little information has been eroded off for each generation. I did leave out some of the drinking references. There is A LOT of drinking going on on midsummer's eve. Not so much at our party, we always have a whole bunch of kids around. Not a whole lot of sobriety, though.

Why not bolt it up stock, and see how it does. Then add shims if needed. If you want a real driveshaft nightmare try a 1960 full size chevrolet passenger car with an X frame. It has a 2 piece driveshaft, 3 u joints, a hangar bearing in the middle, and a shim stack for the single upper control arm for the rear axle to adjust pinion angle. This car uses coil springs in the rear , with a panhard bar.

Do you mean the rear axle? Nah, I don't think that's a good idea. The outgoing axle and drive shaft are very close to in line and the rear is pointing down slightly. The angles aren't large but I don't think it's a good setup. I think I ordered shims, I can't remember.

*checks e-mail history*

Nope. I didn't. Oh, well. Maybe I'll give it a try without shims first. :D
