Rear Driveshaft
Anybody happen to know off hand the length of the rear driveshaft on a '70 F-250 highboy? Four speed, if that part matters...need to get one somewhere, but they all keep asking me for the length, and haven't felt like laying in the mud where its parked to measure, but I may end up having to hahaha. Thanks!

Measurement is the shaft only, it does not include the slip yoke.
I did an internet search for a new shaft. No Ford dealer has it, no obsolete parts dealer has it, either.
C3AZ4635E .. U-joint / #1310 size / Available at any parts store.
O1Y4841 .. Slip Yoke (greensalescompany.com has one slip yoke new old stock: 800-543-4959)
Fits: 1967/72 F250 4WD w/4 speed trans.

I had to have all of my driveshafts custom made.....it doesn't really cost that much either....
For me, it was best this way...as the transmission and engine are retrofits onto my truck, so my shafts were "non-standard" and the front one even required a little grinding to make sure it would not bind.
