Drive shaft length

Guy's I bought a used truck and I am pretty sure the rear driveshaft is too short,so can anyone give me a measurement for rear driveline on a 1994 F 350 4x4,5 speed manual tranny,long bed,single cab,with a 460 engine.It has 1 piece driveline with a slip yoke that go's into the tranny.slip yoke only will go in about 3 inch's onto the spline's and I can make it move up and down slightly with my hand.Truck has some vibration when driving.

What was the fix.

It's always good to put a solution that way when someone else searches for a problem similar to yours, that they have a solution.
