3.5" custom driveshaft clearance

I'm having a 3.5" custom driveshaft made by Supershafts on long island.

I just ordered it today, but I am wondering if it will clear the torque arm and whatnot.

Anyone have any input?

I use 4" one myself that was locally built, though I have a Spohn torque arm in the stock location.

Clearance is fine. Only issue I ever had was with a lowered car and the rear not ce ter right and the shaft rubbed on the parking brake braket and cut a ring into the shaft
