One inch with the rear hanging on the chains. Then check for two inches in the trans at ride height. Not enough; get a longer yoke. Be careful, the older Berts that are not modified will only take a 6 inch yoke. If so, have the output shaft turned. Also check the rearend yoke thrust play in the bearings. Non spacer pinions can be jammed and get too loose.
