I'm going to be swaping out to an 8 3/4 rear so I'm going to need a new driveshaft. Does anyone know the proper length driveshaft from center of u-joint to center of u-joint, for a 4 speed a-body and 8 3/4? I want to try to find a used driveshaft so its ready to go when I swap rears instead of putting in the rear then having the one I have shortened. Thanks Butch 1972 Duster 318 4 speed 1958 392 Hemi engine waiting to be built!!!!!

You won't be able to use it with the 8.75 rear. A list of DS lengths. http://www.autohobbydigest.com/tables.php?17_driveshafts_slip_yoke
