Did you have to do anything to the driveshaft/u-joints/carrier etc.?

Oops, I meant to say power steering bracket, not alternator bracket.
No, the driveline is still all stock. It shudders pretty bad if you try to do a drag strip style launch. I don't think it likes to trying to turn these big tires when they have traction. It doesn't do it when you spin the tires in the dirt. I'll check the pinion angle once I build some longer rear trailing arms. For now it's fine for just cruising around.
I did have to remove the brake line bracket from the rear axle to give the rear brake lines more slack for the increased travel.
