how long is your slip yolk?

Don't get too excited guys haha!
Just got my lift in and the slip yolk is out of the drive shaft about .75" more now.
Is this common? Has this happened to anyone else? Supposed to do that?
Here's a pic:

The Pythagorean theorem can be expressed as the Pythagorean equation:

Simply put - You raised A side and now C side has to get longer as B is constant.

that made my day for some reason, awesome answer

Interesting to note though, is that that only happened because you have leaf springs in the back. For 4runners with coils springs, it's an offsetting double pythagorean system with both control arms, and the DS being relevant hypten-i? hypotenuses? Never pluralized that word before in my life...

EDIT:
Wait, I got it. Hypoteneese.

y=mx+b

Who has leaf springs?

Hey man, its only 2" ... but it spins!!

 

[Zachpins34]

the slip yolk is 2" ? So I got about 1.25-1.5 more room until it would fall out then right? Does it slide out like that on everyones after putting a lift on?

y=mx+b

That's a linear equation

Oh rats, your right, I just glanced at the pic and the ridges on the tank looked like leaf springs.

I guess the fact that the DS is pivoting around a point higher than the control arms pivot, it has some distance to go before it reaches full extension. I as wrong, Pythagorus wasn't...
