thanks this is for a 2wd lwb......i went from a 18 inch long 3speed to a 21 inch long speed...but i have both driveshafts out of a 350/350 truck..was wondering if they are the same.? i looked at the one on my 72 ,but it is a 350/400 and the front shaft is way shorter.....im just trying to see what my options are, i think i will just have my original shaft cut down...but im not shure if the 3speeds have the same input shaft? also with christmas around the corner, i was trying to save a few bucks on having it cut down.....thats all i was sold 2 wrong trans and have some wasted cash in all this...i cant believe finding a 18 inch long 3speed would be so hard....so i am opted to go with the 21 inch and get it over with????
