How did you measure to figure out that it's 1.75" too short? As long as you have sufficient amount of the yoke engaged with the transmission output shaft, it doesn't matter if the yoke sits further out that it would have in the vehicle it was originally in, if that's what you're checking. What was the driveshaft originally from? Do you know if it was ever balanced?
Are you running a TH350 or TH400?
Before you go the driveshaft route, have you checked that the driveline angles are correct at ride height? Is the vibration only at certain speeds, or all the time, and does it seem to be in the seat of your pants/pedals (driveline) or the steering wheel (front end)?
If you do need a longer driveshaft, I would either go to the local wrecker with a tape measure and find one suitable, or go to a driveshaft shop and have them build one.. | | |
