I need short blazer rear driveline - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Gyva · 04-05-2005, 12:35 AM

Anyone have a driveline measuring 38 inches from center to center from U-joint caps. I Need it for the rear of a 69-71 blazer I Think I need a shorter one than whats normal... I put a later model rear end in and the pumpkin is bigger so my drivelin needs to be shorter... I took the measurment of 38 inches with the truck sitting on all 4's so it'll need a little bit of travel (compress and stretch room) under normal driving conditions.... I live in south Idaho if anyones close??? Please let me know if you got one for sale or trade my wrecking yards have nothing

thanks

Mike...

do you not want to pull one from a wrecking yard and have it lengthened/shortened?

hoping someone just has one laying around they would sell. I don't even have one to modify? and with the added cost of buying the wrong driveline and paying someone to make it longer or shoter???? what is the avarage cost to get this done???

i'm trying to remember when i got my gmc lifted... i think i paid less than $200 apiece for the front and rear. i think it might have been down around $150...

I think I've heard that they run in the $100-150 range. Shipping a drive line might be spendy anyway.
