divorced driveshaft length

getting ready to swap out the 203 in my hiboy for the 205 and was wondering if someone with a divorced 205 and a c6 could measure their intermediate shaft for me from yoke to yoke, not sure if mine will still work or not .have access to other shafts if needed thanks

Man, I just cut mine down last week. went from a c-6 w/divorced 205 to a zf-5 w/married 205 + divorced 205. Now my shaft is only about 10 inches long. Is your 203 still good? I want to swap my 205 for a 203.

I have a donor truck in my back yard with a divorced 205 & C6 on a 77 highboy. I'll measure for you tomorror evening after work. I'll let you know unless someone else responds first.

OK, from where the shaft starts to get larger at the yoke to the same on other end, I get about 15 1/4". As a check, from the very end of the yoke to other end (rounded) is 20 1/8". This is a 77 highboy with 205 & C6. Boy it's cold out on the ground tonght.
Hope this helps.
