Drive shaft length

Does anyone have a list or is there a thread with the drive shaft lengths for are various models of Ford pickups. I am working on my grandsons 1992 2wd 133" wb 302 with Aod transmission. I think the drive shaft is to long. And it is probably what cracked the extension housing on the tranny. I have attached a photo and this is with the suspension just hanging while on the lift.

Yea, it's too short. Blasting around in whatever field he's been in probably did it in.
