Bullnose Toploader extension housing

Hi guys,

I have a bullnose toploader with a long extension housing mated up to a 460BB. We have just done a trial fit into my cobra and we will end up with a tailshaft approx 9 inches long. Just wanting to know if there was ever a short extension housing and shaft available for these boxes or will I have to get a new shaft machined and shorten my existing housing to give me a longer tailshaft.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks, Andy.

Andy,
Do you have a live axle or IRS? If IRS, I wouldn't bother changing it...

Hi Craig,
I've got a jag rear with a Ford 9" centre conversion, rough measurements suggest that with front yolk and rear uni joint, i will have about 40mm of actual tailshaft, just thought this might be a touch short.
