Driveshaft question.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Weather was beautiful this weekend and had my truck out for a bit and noticed a small vibration that progressively got worse....long story short, almost made it back to the shop before the front U joint gave out!

After getting trailer and going through all that BS, only had time to get it up in the air for a quick look. Think I'm gonna have to replace the drive shaft.....pretty beat up.

So the question.......guys with 700R4 / small block combos. Driveshafts from anything else out there close to the correct size? Be nice if I didn't have to have one made or buy a long one and have it shortened.
