    want to convert my long shaft 400 TH to short shaft

     



    Hello all,

    I want to convert my long shaft 400 turbo to a short shaft.

    with the divorced transfer case I have in my mud truck, the short shaft would be a easy bolt up.

    Is there a kit I can buy?

    all replies greatly appreciated

    Ross

    Cool I'll be looking for a short tail housing too. I was thinking to do the same as Ross. Thanks.
