anyone know the length of there doubler intermediate shaft, end to end?
ive been inquiring with carl jantz, from jantz engineering about having the stock transfer case shaft cut down and resplined, instead of press/weld 2 shafts together.
from the measurements that i have taken it seems that there would be plenty of room for this. (he says he cant spline right up to a shoulder, best he could do is about 3/4" away.) the spot he is talking about has, if i remember correctly 1 3/8" material before it hits the adapter plate( the large spline section that gets bored/press/welded.), i figure if he starts splining before the adapter plate all should be good and i could grind/cut off whatever excess shaft is left. and have a complete 2 1/4 shaft engagement.
the reason i am inquiring about this instead of pressing the 2 shafts together is because i have seen many threads where the 1350/1354 shreds the splines once the user hits the highway. i know there are many members here that are having no issues, so im not sure what the problem is, but id like to avoid it all together if i could. i saw on another forum where someone had the above stated issue with 2 shafts within a few hundred miles and someone posted a pic of what looked like a resplined stock shaft.
also im not sure if the oiling hole would cause any issues, but he shouldnt have to spline right up to it.
