Every time you adjust the gear shift lever, the adjustments in the differential gears are mechanically transmitted via the transmission. Shifting gear entails either increase in speed and torque or reduction in speed and torque. The drive shaft directly transfers the torque to the axle assembly which in turn transfers the torque to the wheels. In normal vehicles, this transfer of torque and change in gear ratio orientation are made possible by the transmission shaft and the differential gear.

However, when some adjustments in the height of the vehicle are made, the transmission and differential gears undergo alignment changes. Hence, you may need a Skyjacker tailshaft conversion kit to accommodate these changes. Skyjacker tailshaft conversion kit is a complete set that can be installed to replace the built-in tailshaft of your vehicle. This tail shaft conversion kit will allow the proper alignment of the transmission and the differential gear boxes to compensate for the changes in the height of the vehicle.

The tailshaft conversion kit may include the housing that contains the shifter plate, the shifter spring, the reinstall pin, the reverse inhibitor and neutral switch; the bearing, the bolts, and the shaft itself. By installing a tailshaft conversion kit, you allow the gear shift and transmission to work perfectly as if no changes in the vehicle height were made. Without this conversion kit, the vehicle transmission will be improperly aligned which might result in the gear damage and inaccurate transmission of torque. You should consider the specifications of your vehicle before purchasing a tailshaft conversion kit so that your money, time, and effort will not be wasted.
