Excellent documentation; it ranks at the top of the list. Now, if only open source software came so well documented my life would be so simple!

Awesome! I have the same driveshaft sitting in my livingroom right now. I'm waiting on some better weather to install it. I read Taco Bill's write-up on his 1 piece drivshaft install as well. One thing Im confused about are the marks you made. Is this to keep the rear and front joints in the same position as stock or is it solely in case you need to install the stock DS later?
Did you have to adjust pinin angle? I'm lowered 3/4" in the rear only.

I hate living in the midwest this time of year. I have the DS, BMR loop, torque limiters, MGW shifer, and BMR radiator support sitting in my livingroom waiting to install. I also have an appointment to get 4.10 gears installed and a dyno tune but I have to wait until March 24th for that because of the weather.

Yes the marks were made just in case I ever needed to return to stock. I have steeda ultralites which lower the car about an 1" and some change and I didn't have to adjust the PA. Wow your car's going to be a whole new animal once you get all those parts in.
