My R72 shaft next to an SJ wish I knew about the different splines first
I'll swap you my shortened R72 shaft for your decent looking SJ one if you fancy a 0 cost swap? (assuming UK postage costs similar to each other), send me a PM
I can measure it on friday when next in the garage otherwise...

Yes

I’m thinking brackets linked to the spine (which protects the transfer box from stresses) and a skid plate under it but not integral to it then?

Some cars got 200hp volvo turbo engine, and 35" tyres and toyota axles.
Very few has had torque related problems as far as I know. The cars get bashed and crushed of course until something breaks and it all does, but still the 4.16:1 case remain in use for many.
