Wasn't there a debate about 1350's actually having more travel a few months back? I've heard that 1310's have more travel than 1350's many times, but I've heard a few times that 1350's actually have more angle due to the additional distance between the joints in the CV itself. This allows the CV to go to a greater angle and not bind.
Not sure which is right, but I've heard both. Never really looked into it though.

1350 u joints are bigger and decrease operating angle

Well I knew they were bigger, I just didn't realize that had anything to do with the operating angle.
This is one of those moments where being able to see an image side-by-side of a 1310 and 1350 u-joint driveshaft would help me visualize it.
Lol yep! Are you sure he wasn’t talking about axle shaft u joints?Based on that thread, a 1350 should be avoided at all costs
That's why I should just keep my mouth shut at this point. I'm sure I misheard, and I'm only making it worse by continuing to speculate and run my mouth
Like I said, obnoxious, screaming kids makes it hard to hear.
Okay. I’d like to know as well. I’ve spent a lot of time cycling my axles during this midarm install.
With the Rancho shocks I’m near bind, still a little ways from it at full droop. My rear shaft is a TW 1310. It’d be nice to not have to run a strap but it seems like it’s in the future.

TJ Expert
I would like to do one. A TJ with more than 2 people is no fun. Even an LJ back seat is tight for me at 6'2". Adding 6" to the foot well and moving the backseat 6" from stock and the back seat is very comfy, even with the front seat all the way back. They do get long, but as a second jeep it allow family outing more that 10-15 minutes. And grocery runs.
I’ll have to measure it.
I don’t recall the part numbers, it’s the longest ones they make of the rs5000x.
Instead of clogging up jjvw's thread pop over to mine and I'll answer your question.

OP
Search bump stop on Savvy or 4LowParts. The front has spacers. I'm not using any. The rear is only one size, but could be adjusted using the leftovers from the front. However, as is they seem to be the right size for a 12" shock split in half.
Depends, yes, no, not really. TJ-6 done traditionally is 108" of wheelbase. That is 40" tire wheelbase and you need the belly height to work on traditional trails other than stuff like Moab.
