Had a word today with 3 of the guys we use for half shafts on our race cars. Cheepest quote for a pair of custom half shafts was 1800 quid. (if you want 30 pairs I can get it down to 600.) then theres the cost of extending the rear axle. so if your sent on it then Dana axles is the best way to go IMO. I would think that 80 longer halfshafts may still be a tad short but if anyone can provide a measurement I will gladly compare it to the 90 ones. No when it come to shortening half shafts that is possible but as I said before "I" personally would not guarentee they would hold up to off road punishment and again in my opinion anyone that would is just after your cash.
A 4 inch offset TBF isn't huge and as I said earlier (and the cost is going up and up) how many bearing will you get for 5k. You say about having to chop and change the arches and such but to get the look properly your going to have to get the new arches glassed in anyway.#
I reckon that that look can be achieved for around £1500 (bear in mind I am a northerner!!!!!) not including rubber.
