Im building a zuki samurai with k-links (3with panhard), the axles will be about the same place like the zuki crawler Chris build. i was wondering is the 12inch long enough,since with links i dont get the same axle movement i do with leaf springs.:confused:

With links you should get very little axle movement forward and backward.
so, yes the 12" slip will be enough.

I used less than 2" of spline travel on my setup. 12" will be plenty of stroke.

We sell only the slip spline, U-joint and flange. We don't offer complete shafts or CV's. The Creeper joint is a stronger version of the stock U-joint. You will still need parts from a stock drive shaft as well as tubing to create a finished part.

This photo shown on the web site, shown above, is a finished shaft I made using the TG slip spline. This is what a finished shaft looks like but is not what we are selling. That shaft has a stock CV on it.

This is a photo of what is included in the drive shaft kit. In order to complete your driveshaft you will need a second ujoint or CV, flange and driveshaft tubing.
