NJ WTB: swb one piece drive shaft - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**ScottH** · 09-27-2012, 12:28 PM

Looking for a one piece drive shaft for a swb with a small block v8.

Please post pics and price including shipping to 08753.

Thanks
Scott

I have one that a friend and fellow board member bought and never used. Do you know the length you need?

**ScottH** · 09-27-2012, 03:25 PM

Looks like approximately 58"-59" from center of u-joint to center of yoke spline.

C10_ustacould · 09-27-2012, 07:21 PM

The one I have is 56 3/4" from the center of the rear u-joint to the middle of the yoke. Another measurement I use with my drive shaft guy is from the center to center of the u-joints which is 53 3/8". The yoke that is on the drive shaft now is for a TH350. Seems like it may be a bit short.

**ScottH** · 09-27-2012, 11:53 PM

Yup a little too short, but thanks for checking.

Anyone else?

What's yours center to center? I have three shafts.

**ScottH** · 09-28-2012, 12:12 AM

Approx 59"

old Chevy guy · 09-30-2012, 07:25 PM

I have one that is 61'' center to center on the U joint cups.

**ScottH** · 10-01-2012, 02:07 PM

After some better measuring, it looks like around 57 1/2" would be best.

thanks old chevy guy but looks like urs is a little too long.

Anyone else?

*mrdana60* · 10-01-2012, 02:14 PM

I have three all different lengths. All are center to center of u joints

61
55 1/2
53 -54

**ScottH** · 10-02-2012, 06:21 PM

thanks mrdana60, but looks like 58-59 is what I need.
