driveshaft/lowering question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a SWB 69 C10 with a 2 piece driveshaft and I am lowering the rear of the truck in a few weeks. I have lowered the front using only 2.5" drop spindles and I plan on using 4" drop coils for the rear along with a shock mount relocation kit, drop shocks and an adjustable trac bar. Will the stock length on the driveshaft work or will it have to be shortened? I tried searching but didn't find any detailed information. I'm sure I will need a new seal for the extension housing on the trans as well since it will be riding on a new location of the yoke after it is lowered.
