Driveshaft

I have numerous driveshafts. Are you running the stock '71 8.5" rear end? I have shipped driveshafts all across the country. Email me for pics, etc.: drolds1@bellsouth.net. Thanks, Bob.

You no I have a shaft from a turbo 350 and I have one from a 700 r4 which can't handle 500 hp 500 plus ft.lbs. of torque jukebox on wheels. Guessing one to short ones to long? Can you give me a measurement center of cap to center of cap, maybe??? Thanks
