    I think it is a little to far out, The problem that I have is that alot of the yokes the splines don't always come to the very end or the shaft that the yoke slides on to is recessed back in the trany or tail shaft. This will allow a little wobble which will tear up your rear seal in the tail shaft of the trany. Then you'll have the trany dripping trany fluid all the time, and if your anything like me that will drive you out of your mind. I swear I can hear that thing dripping, laying in bed at night. And it does'nt matter how many times you replace the seal after a couple of weeks they go right back to dripping again. Can you tell I've been through this before, several times but I hate to admit it. I would want it at least 3/4 of the way on the shaft. I would say 1 in. or less would be acceptable.
