Trouble is I don't appear to have any room to fit an 8 magnet collar on the pinion. I'm running a Dana 60 and there appears to be a metal dust plate there, and anyway, it's way to thin @ .200". Has any used the slip yoke instead? I know it's gonna move but how far?

Much easier to run wiring to, and a higher tooth count for low speed accuracy. "use it 'till it breaks, replace as needed"

Car has a lotta rise on it from launch but it looks like it won't make a difference. I'm guessing that it moves inwards more if the car were to go over bumps. Of course this now presents another problem, who makes a 1 11/16" 8 magnet collar ?
