Default 4L80E into 1998 Trans Am.......what drive shaft....?

Is there a driveshaft that is factory made that will fit right in, or does it have to be a custom cut driveshaft to fit into an FBody......?

I'm using the stock length DS with a TH400 yoke to fit the 4l80e.

You mean a stock length 98-02 FBody drive shaft will fit...?

So just reuse the driveshaft I have now with my 4L60E...?
