Re: front drive shaft 1980 length
Looking to see, but I did find some good info on years from an unmentionable company. They follow the one size fits all idea of things.
"Fits the following Chevrolet Blazer - Full Size Years 1966-1994 Chevrolet Blazer - Full Size" Too bad there wasn't a picture to show reference to the "64-66" Blazer. |

I have a driveshaft from a 1980 th350/205 that I could measure if it is the same length.

I have seen online that the th400 is 2 3/4" longer then the th350 so I know now the proper length=28.5" th400/205. I been confused because a GM dealer told me 29 5/8" but that measurement must have to be when bolted in place with the wheel on the ground. 28.5 plus inn travel=29 5/8 I guess?? |
