I'm swapping to an 80e and was wondering do I need to swap my driveshaft for an aftermarket one or should I just cut mine down. I have a '00 Chevy rcsb with a 6.0 swap. The reared will be getting tru trac and 4.10's.

http://www.driveshaftspecialist.com/...uckmaster.html has the ds-1 for $245- $315. Thanks for the help.

 

No one has any input?

 

IIRC we took off an inch off the driveshaft on my crewcab when doing the 80e swap.

 

I had mine cut down, but I already had a 6" driveshaft specialist Dshaft. Are you 2wd?

 

i didnt cut anthing off my rcsb. just swapped yoke.

 

Thats what I am getting at if he is 2wd. TH400 yoke is shorter.

 

Same here, didn't even require a trick u joint.

 

Yeah it's 2wd, which yoke should I get.

This is what is in my truck. Not sure on a part # or vendor. The part that slides into the transmission is just over 5" long.

 

What size u joints are on your driveshaft?

I believe all TH400 tailshafts are made for 1350.
