Drive shaft modifications to Original Unit.
The modification of your drive shaft should be performed by a local driveline repair shop 
that is capable of balancing your finished assembly. 
Note: Use a C.V. joint & a long slip spline style shaft assembly to avoid problems 
 with lifted vehicles
.
If you wish to have a custom driveshaft fabricated you will need to get your new 
driveshaft measurement length. Use the measurement procedures listed in step #18. 
 Note: for proper C.V. type drive shaft operations, the rear differential 
yoke should be pointing at the transfer case output yoke. This should be 
checked under normal driving conditions and load
STEP 19: - Speedometer Calibration Data 
Proper calibration of the speedometer will greatly depend on what changes have been 
made to the axle gear ratio and tire size. There are some combinations that will not 
require calibration changes (refer to the chart below) and are shown in the color gray. 
The other data reflects what your speedometer percentage of error will be if the 
speedometer is not recalibrated. If your vehicle requires recalibration a converter box can 
be purchase. (Not Available from Omix-Ada – Rugged Ridge).
