The CV Joints arrived so I spent a bit of time mocking up the first driveshaft with some 25mm tube.

When designing the engine & gearbox mounts, I spent a lot of time making sure the engine was as far forward and as low down as I could make it, which you can see from the driveshaft angles.



There’s at least 19mm of possible movement (at full drop) on the driveshaft, and 23mm movement resting height, and 22mm on the bump stops. So nothing bottoms out.
As of Feb 24, I’m waiting for the driveshafts to arrive. 🙂
