New here, so hopefully I'm posting in the right forum. I have a 67 Chevy C20. Originally 3 speed transmission (3 on the tree). I've purchased a TH400 (automatic) for conversion. I have the trans installed. Now comes the hard part - the drive shaft. Since the truck obviously isn't drive-able, wondering A. Do drive shaft specialist come out to measure? If so, does anyone know of a trust worthy operation in Los Angeles (323 area) or B. Can I measure it myself?... and how do I do so with accuracy (starting point, ending point)? Help. I'm lost.
