I think he needs to know which engine and transmission you have since some of the drive shafts are different.

tripleblack · 03-29-2006, 05:40 PM

automatic 307 v8 engine.

Probably needs to know exacty what trans, t350, t400, t700, t200, powerglide.

Longhorn Man · 03-29-2006, 08:54 PM

Also needs to know if it is a short shaft or long shaft tranny too.

First, tell us if it has 2, 3 or 4 speeds.

Then, tell us what shape the transmission pan is.

Finally, measure the length of the rear housing on the transmission. It should bolt on. It's the thing the driveshaft should come out of.

Lastly, look at your engine mounts, where they bolt to the frame. There will be three bolt holes in the framerail on each side. The mounts will be bolted into two of these three holes. Are they in the front pair of holes or the rear pair?

I've got one from a 4 speed manual / 12 bolt rear with new u-joints, por15'd -
$75 + shipping. I think you'd need a slip yoke for the automatics.

Mods, ff I can't respond to a WTB thread, just delete this post.
