67 LongBed driveshaft length auto vs manual transmission
I'm away from my truck and found a driveshaft local to where I am at a fair price I can bring back with me.
The challenge is it's for a LongBed with a turbo 350, but I've got a LongBed with a 3 speed in my truck Anyone know if they're the same length or if they're different. Thanks in advance!!! |

My 67 C20, 4spd SM465, granny gear. 2 piece driveshaft. When I installed the 700r4, I had to shorten the driveshaft 13 inches.

I'm trying to figure out if the auto and manual driveshaft are the same length in the long beds so I can buy a fresher one than what I've got in it now. I just had a custom one piece for my 71, but its not worth the expense for my 67, unfortunately. |

TH350 with short tailshaft (most common) is the same length as a Saginaw 3-speed manual, and even a Muncie 4-speed.
