Eventually I'm going to have the shaft built but in the essence of time, my question still remains 'would it be possibly to cut the slip yoke' pushing the joint further towards the tranny and overall allowing myself to continue driving until I have one built?
You really don't gain anything by cutting the slip yoke. You would need to cut the output shaft too, as it would hit the bottom of the yoke. Pictured is my 2500 two piece rear shaft yoke, there is still some room to go deeper.
1410 u-joint, yoke od 48 millimeters or 1.89"
