What loop? I'm assuming you mean the Lakewood one. My 3" shaft fits fine through the loop however the 1350 series u-joint yokes wouldn't fit through until I modified the loop a bit.
I have a universal loop on my truck with a huge 4" shaft. There's about 1/16" clearance on each side of the shaft. The shaft doesn't move side to side so it never touches.

And I meant any loop. I'm just looking for something that'll work. I have a Spohn ds loop now and it's 5". So I won't have to worry about the 4" shaft ever touching the loop?

What are your recomendations as far as a 4inch shaft compared to a 3inch shaft? Has anyone ever used a 4inch shaft?
