Default 48" driveshaft????

Been doing some searching on what guys are running for driveshaft lengths and the numbers did not seem right to what I have so I thought I would measure my setup again and get some thoughts. Center to center on the driveshaft is 41 3/4" and from the front of the slip yoke to the rear center of u-joint is 48" seems a little on the long side????

correct with your application. the f-body cars dont require much slip travel at the yoke due to link and torque arm type suspension.

Thanks Eric. Just wanting to double check Strange's stuff while it was out. I have noticed it is hit or miss with axles and d shafts.
