Howdy, I'm looking for a drive shaft for a swb 67-72 truck, it has a sbc in the v-8 position, and a short shaft th350. I'm located in washington state. anyone have one? Thanks

Yes...and it is new. Just built and "balanced" by driveshaft shop. It is a two-piece, just like the original.

hrmm I always thought the SWB shafts were one piece, guess I was wrong, anyway, how much do you want for it?

**PICKMUP** · 07-27-2005, 02:09 PM

It has new ujoints and is electronically balanced. All SWB/AT original trucks I have seen were two-piece.
$100 + WA residents must pay 8% sales tax.

i have owned two 68 shortbed chevy trucks, one fleetbed with one piece driveshaft and v-8 automatic and one stepbed with two piece drive shaft and 3-on tree v-8. not sure why but two piece drive shaft is longer?

A 79-85 chevy caprice 4 dr has the right length shaft you need.Thats is whats i use,the others are getting hard to find and you can get one of these cheap at the local yard...JMO..Erick

4 foot 10 inches is what you need for a single shaft.
first gen camaros had that, so i wouldn't be suprised if the 3rd gen Novas had it.
