Go to Denny's Driveshafts website and download the measurement form they have. It shows you exactly what measurements you need to take to get. New driveshaft fabbed.

You need to ask the shop that is going to build your shaft how they want it measured. They all do it a little bit different. There are several good sponsors on here. Pick one and do what they tell you.
