shortbed driveshaft question...
My 84 started out as a longbed with a metric trans & now is a shortbed with a long tail TH350. Did the TH trucks come with long or short tailshaft transmissions from the factory? Anybody know the length of them?
Have one for sale? Thanks...corn |

Don't know the length of the driveshaft, but my truck has the long tail version.

just out of curiousity, what "metric" trans do you have? if its a 700R4, the driveshaft should work no problem.

It was a 3 speed metric, (200? I think). Also it was a long bed truck before so its too long & I dont have it any more...

if it was a TH250, they're identical dimensionally. if its a 700R4, its close enough to work.
