Re: D35 to Ford 8.8 rear end
Hey Bill, That install you pointed out looks kinda odd. It is showing
the pinion rotated up like you would do for a CV style driveshaft, but
the pinion on the Ford 8.8 however is offset from center about 1 1/2". I
would expect that one to shake like hell and eat U-joints. Parallel
shafts and simple U-joints would be the better bet.

Re: D35 to Ford 8.8 rear end
The thing that has so far kept me from upgrading running gear and
suspension, aside from the fact that I don't really need it, is the desire
to avoid doing things wrong. There are so many ways, that you can screw
up...
