Default Driveshaft

Ok need some fast and straight forward help here. Doing a th400 to a 2004r transmission, Im going to replace the drive shaft with a new one. Bowtie overdrive has provided the new yoke.

I need the basic info on u-joints, which end has what size, how long the drive shaft has to be fro center joint to center joint. And anything else i would need to know so i can call the driveshaft company , give them the specs and let it rip.


Thanks in advance. Car is a 1975, 350sb, th400 originally going to 2004r (383 sb)

There is nothing you need to do but change the front universal. Any auto parts store can provide the correct one. The driveshaft is the correct length.
