Re: Drive shaft
I just had a new one built using my old ends and yoke. Was only $275.
*edit - included new .083 wall(?) shaft tubing

Re: Drive shaft
I'm having one built right now same as yours with a th350/700r4 yoke, camaro rear end and about 55". The shop used a truck core they had, shortened it, new u-joints, and balanced all for $125. It's a small shop, my usual place would be more like $250 but I'm not impressed with the last two they did for me.
But to answer your question just about any 2wd short bed chevy truck and a huge number of cars.

Re: Drive shaft
