we took the truck back to the track and it still ran into the mid 11s but my dad said that it sounds like the driveshaft is hitting. so I drove the truck and I could fell the driveshaft hitting. I looked at the driveshaft and I could see where its hitting the body so I guess I have some cutting to do on the tunnel. I don't know what has changed

Might check the transmission mount just to make sure something didn't come loose and is letting the trans shift around.

Only 20.00 to have it cut out a lot better than burning myself up

My credo
Built not bought
I had to actually do the same on my 94 after the swap . I have a 4" aluminum driveshaft from a e150 cut down . After the first drift event I cut deep almost 50 thousand after measuring with a caliper mic . I ended up cutting the whole rear tunnel out in the end just cause I still rubbed on crazy angles in parking lots . Course I have a 4.5/7 drop . I'm also adding the stock expo traction bars since the mounts are there on the axle already . Just need to weld up mount to the frame . I like the top mounted traction bars compare to the lower mounted bars just for road clearance with my wheel combo . I would like to see how you designed that driveshaft hoop please [emoji120]. You go straight fast , I go fast sideways but many mods cross ever I feel . Got a build thread if you wanna see it going . Be nice if I had your power running 11's in your truck . Still stock expo 5.0 with tri's

Yeah I had shops telling 400-500 for one so I started looking and found them. It works my tail housing broke and it held the driveshaft in
