LS1 Driveshaft Install
I went to put in my LS1 driveshaft this weekend with my new rear, but my exhaust was in the way and have to get it moved. But here is the problem, the new shaft looks like it's going to be real close to the torque arm like almost touching. So people that have done this swap how close does it come to your Torque arm? (it's the factory torque arm btw)

it also depends on your ride height, my driveshaft touches the TA when the suspension is completley unloaded and hanging.

The aluminum driveshaft was part of the WS6 package. If it didn't have the WS6 package it had a steel driveshaft. Aklaim is also right because no WS6 TA had 2.73's. The lower gears were also part of the WS6 package.
