What 1 piece drive shaft from what other kind of truck or car fits a 87 1/2 ton..I grabbed a 87 1/2 ton 2wd with a v6 and turbo 400 and 2 piece rear drive shaft...current lenght is 68 inches...but the hanger bearings gone so I figure I'll go one piece drive shaft....what did you grab it from? I'm not going to cut a longer one down..would just rather know what to find. most 1 piece I saw today were 70 inches.

I grabbed an aluminum one for now..It may work..I hope to try it out soon. I think I got the right lenght. I hate to cut off the hanger bracket and then find out it wont work. So I am looking to make it work without any changes to the driveshaft lenght...just using a stock 1 piece lenght.
