T5 swap success!
Feeling very accomplished, should have some pics coming up later tonight, but I got my T5 in even though its just for mock up. Had a problem with my cross member, bought one from mustangs unlimited (POS), and had to buy another one from Modern Driveline, yes I could have built my own but don't have the space right now. Anywho I was all excited to get my mock up done, swapped in a 9 inch as well so I could get the driveshaft fitment figured out, and I slide my shaft in, oh so smooth, and its so long I can't get the pinion to set on the yoke of the 9 inch. I am thinking I might have to lop off almost 3 inches to get the thing to fit. Anyone else run into this kind of problem?

Looks like all the other slip yokes I have seen. Not sure what you meant by the disk part.
Also here is a bad pic of the trans installed.
Found that my total DS length is 60" but my length from the flat of the pinion yoke to the center of the slip yoke u-joint is 50 1/2" does this mean I need to cut 10" off!? Some how this does not make sense to me.
