Re: What is the correct way to measure driveshaft?

I just had mine shortened. the driveshaft people told me to place the truck with all the weight on the wheels, slide the front yoke into the back of the tailshaft and then pull it out about 1/2" to 3/4". Then measure center to center of the u-joints front to rear. Worked good for me.
