I'm about 5mm shy of being OK. I've moved the motor mounts back a little and I'm about to move the rear diff. If that doesn't work what other options do I have???

errrr.... how much room should the diff have to move fore & aft?

OK I loosened up my diff and bolted up the driveshaft. I'm trying to level out the driveshaft but the center bearing is up too far to shim down AND the giubo is deflecting about 2mm how much is the giubo supposed to deflect? I thought none... and I thought the driveshaft was supposed to be 100% level??? No???
