The Crowns have a 55.5" +- center to center 1350 shaft from about 1995 to 2012. Total length is listed as 64.62". Most of them are steel in the family cars but the police interceptors came with a 3.5" aluminum shaft that was high speed balanced and designed for the extra abuse. The only change I'm making is the front slip yoke which will not require balancing. I have been contemplating changing to an 8.8 diff at some point and this shaft will bolt right up with the factory rear flange yoke reinstalled. There is also a long wheelbase Crown that lists a longer shaft.
