You're going to have to go under and measure. Remember, yoke should stick out at least 1 1/2".

If you have the origiinal driveshaft the measurement should be 51".

If you wish to measure this, you can measure from the back of the output shaft on your transmission to the center where your u-joint goes on your pumpkin. Then you subtract 2 1/2 inches from that measurement and you have your driveshaft length.

I guess someone needs to invent "The Driveshaft Club"
