Question Drive Shaft Lengths

Ok, So I will be swapping my NP-435 out for a C6, hopefully soon, and I am just wondering what are the lengths of the front and rear drive shafts for a regular cab long bed?

If it's a married set up ? I went from a C6 to a 435 and my front shaft was too long and the back was too short. There are also 2 different tail shaft lengths for the married C6's in 4x4's so be sure you got the right one.

Ok, So a married transfer case is where you just take of the tail shaft and bolt on the transfer case right?

And yea the truck I'm working on is the one under me the 77 F-150 Custom
