Re: SWB driveshaft...
I may be on to a two piece shaft for may long to short conversion...the guy said it will need another yoke due to an accident...is that the end of the trans or the actual shaft...pardon my ignorance...

Re: SWB driveshaft...
The yoke is on the rearend or the tailshaft of some TH400s. The other auto trannies don't have a yoke on the tailshaft.

Re: SWB driveshaft...
It all depends on which trans you've got.
