Thanks Guys,
I will try to get the truck in the garage later this week to jack it up and do a rough measurement of where the drive shaft would be with relation to the other parts (trans yoke and rear third member) to see what length it all has to be, then take the trans yoke with me to a few bone yards to see what I can come up with from the newer trucks. If I can't find one identical in length, I'll try to find one a little long to cut down and re-eld. That should be my cheapest route. Thanks again, Garry
