Whats the length of a shortbed D/S with 700R4??

I have not been able to find a short bed drive shaft for my short bed conversion. Anyone know the length so I can have 1 made?? My trans is a 700R4. So if you have a TH350 and you give me the length, it will be wrong.
Thanks everyone!!

The long shaft TH350 is close enough in length that you can use those measurements. Measurements I found were 55 1/4" measured from the center to center of the u-joints. This is with a long shaft TH350 and a 10 bolt. 12 bolt may have a different measurement. Best bet is to complete your conversion and then measure.

I`m going from a 700R4 to a short shaft TH350 and I`ve found many different measurements for the shortbeds.
