K10 reg. cab longbed. Did you have to lengthen your drive shafts for a 6" lift?
I recently picked up a 77 k10 long bed with what I think is a 6" lift. My front and rear drive shaft splines are shot and I was going to have them repaired (I heard a driveshaft shop can do it) but before I took them in I wanted to know if they should be lengthened? Or should I buy a spacer for the front drive shaft from Superlift and lengthen the rear shaft? Just want to make sure before I spend the money, thanks

I put a 6" lift on my 82 last fall & didn't have to lengthen drive shafts,I did some grinding off the ears on CV joint,but thats all.Put about 25000 miles on since then,no issues $ been kinda rough on it too!!

Guess I should add too,that 75% of the miles were gravel roads,some mud & snow also.I set up this truck for work,not running on pavement much & works great! Having some tranny issues,but not lift related!!
