It may as I dont know on the AOD & C4 yoke
Try this link as I am sure that is where post 3 got it from
https://www.garysgaragemahal.com/drive-shafts.html

I cant believe there is no one in Nashville that dose car / truck drive shafts.
The one I used here just outside Raleigh MC (Gardner NC) dose big rig truck shafts but was able to make mine for my 81 F100 flare side with NP435
Why I needed one made I have Advance Adapter Range Splitter over drive between motor & trans making the drive shaft shorter by 7.5 inches.
Check out large truck shops if they can help on the shaft.

Not sure what your plans were on getting a driveshaft. Most are bent at the junkyard when they pick them up with a forklift. I see Copart picks them up with a big loader from the front or rear for that reason.

Along that same line the DS I took to the shop to have it shorten had a little dent I fond when cleaning it before I took it.
Shop seen the dent and said cant use that tube and had to be replaced.
The dent was in the center and I knew he was right as the tube could be bent.
