Default th400 to strange s60 driveshaft longer or shorter

the reason i ask is because i have a expensive strange driveshaft now, they told me that they can shorten it but not make it longer.. so with a s60 rearend and th400 will i need a longer or shorter driveshaft??

I believe you will need a longer driveshaft.

What combination was the driveshaft built for?

First You will need a different slip yoke, 4L60 has 27-splines while the T400 has 32-splines. This means the yoke will be a different length. Then can check this chart out...keep in mind there are quite a few different length tail shaft lengths for the T400. best bet is to install the T400 and measure to be certain of the accuracy.
