Maybe more. Depending where you put the bolts. I raised my rear another inch and a half to match the front Saturday. I think their website says 1.5 for relocation and 2 for extended shackles. So YA 3.5

Some place called Wilsons DS. I had to get my yolk cut down and got a quote while I was there. Seemed high 280.00. Figured I would check around.

Was the DS you picked up bad or did you just want to rebuild it? Try ABQ driveshaft at Summer and 5th Street.
