63 4wd LWB

Hey, Can anyone help me find the drive shaft (remember, there's three of them) lengths on a 1963 F-150 LWB. I believe it has a 4 speed trans(on the floor).
I'm trying to figure out if they are the same as the shafts on a 1960 truck with the same setup.
Thanks for your input, Jere

You mean F100? Or F250? Which is it? Correct me if I'm wrong, but 150's didn't exist 'till early-mid '70's.

About the drive shafts. You would be better off to have them fabricated at a local shop. Specialty shops build, balance and overhaul these shafts and the investment is worth the money. An out of balance shaft can cause additional damage, leave you stranded and is a PITA! BTDT!
