drive shaft length

What you do is put the transmission yoke in the back of the transmission all the way forward as far as it will go. Then with the back of the car in the air and supported by the axle, not the frame, measure from the center of the u-joint on the yoke to the center of the u-joint for the axle.

Then subtract an inch for "installation clearance" and you have what length you need for your driveshaft.


Ps. You have to have the engine and trans installed in the car.
