And if you have a TH350 with the short shaft tail on it, then 4 foot and 10 inches should be what you need.

If its a half ton You will want brand and part number PDQ-0153 that will get you somewhere most places sell Pdq brand stuff or have a book to cross it over as long as you get outside locks that will be the joint you will need If you want extreme Use U Joint Get a brute force p/n Bf-0153 now if you get a newer style driveshaft you will need inside locks In wich case i dont know the part numder but i can get it .
