The length will vary depending on the brand of yoke. The yokes can vary in length by approximately 1.5", so be sure to get your yoke first & then measure for length.

If ordering it with the shaft, use the dimension sheets provided by place you are getting the shaft from.

Be careful, so you do not buy it twice.

**At ride height**, measure from the face of the seal on the transmission, to the face of the rearend yoke where the straps bolt on. Give that dimension to the driveline shop that you use. They will figure everything else out.
