Ok fellas im at a loss here.
What I got: 49 gmc w/ 235 chevy motor, 3 speed and stock torque tube (I assume).
I recently got a 235 running and assembled a 3 speed tranny to it with intentions to connect the stock torque tube to it and make a driver. But I must be missing something. The back of the tranny looks like its missing an universal joint while the torque tube has a male end with splines sticking out. I did some searching but im not sure if that's all im missing.
As far as I know, I need a universal joint that bolts to the tranny but also has a "hole in the middle of it for the "spline" to connect. Is that it? Sorry I don't have pix, its dark outside but Ill snap a few tomorrow.
Here are two links that I have found useful:

(part that I think i need to buy to be in business and get my truck driveable?)
Thanks for any input, I bolted the tranny to the 235 and thought I should be running by this weekend but apparently I am missing something. Thanks!
