I noticed that my driveshaft is almost flush with the end of my torque tube, it is not inset by 1/4 as normal. I have an original late 32 torque tube and shortened a 34 driveshaft to fit, but must have made a slight error. Could this cause transmission issues? I am also wondering if the ball on the end of my shift lever is not perfect and that is causing issues?
