i been searching but cant find or prob i missed it but dose my stock drive shaft work with the 4l80 with different yokes and if yes whats the part number

 

it doesnt u mek

 

iv heard that some ppl have done it so gtfo g string

 

ive read that the yokes are the same in the 07-up silverados. Same guy stated his oem shaft out of his 07 silverado fit perfect without mods or cutting it. Im getting ready to start the swap in my 09 and had just bought a shaft from XMS in edingburg and was worried about having to send it back and be cut to specs and balanced for high speeds. Whats your going into??

 

when i did my 80e swap, i upgraded everything...1350 u-joints and yokes, with 3" steel driveshaft.

 

Stock with long 4l80e front yoke works.

 

It's also the same long yoke a TH400 uses.

 

In the extended cabs it will work because the slip yoke takes up the extra length of the trans... The reg cabs need the shaft shortened. This is true for 99-07 trucks anyway.

 

someone needs to double check this info cause 00z71 is running a stock DS with long 80e yoke and no issues on a 99 regular cab. They make a short yoke also if it's too long for some weird reason.
