so i have a 7" long arm and just got my motor swapped in and now i need to dive it home. my slip yoke was binding cause of too much lift so i removed the u-joint and grinded down some metal off the slip yoke so the u-joint would clear. it was not rebalanced but i did a pretty good job on it. seems fine when i tested it at 40mph. do you think a wing it job is good enought for a 150 mile highway trip?

cant do that, have long arm kit. but i got home fine and no wobble at all. maybe a slight vibration but i took it up to 100mph with no issue. i did fing a mystrious leak from my tranny right above the cross member though, cant seem to find the source yet.
