Lucas won’t let you look around. You tell them what you want, they say “wait here” and come back in 10 minutes and say “nope, got nothing” So Yeah I went there (not impressed), Nagys and Dundee truck and trim. Both of those places at least pointed to a pile of shafts and said to take a look. Everything is too short or 2 piece. The only one I found to shorten wouldn’t work because of the shape of it snd the amount it needed shortened.I contacted Lays transmission in Toledo. Got quoted $400 to $500 to build me a driveshaft.
I was browsing ebay and bingo. Come to find out an el camino from the 80s has a 61 3/8” driveshaft. $200 and 4 days later it was here. Needs new u joints but it came with the correct yoke. Bolts right up.
Another hurdle done. Floor shifter and she is moving on her own.
Thank you for all the replies. It is much appreciated
