Larry Shaw Driveshaft and Yoke length

[ask0329]

Anyone know the recommended length for a Larry shaw late model drive shaft and yoke? I was told 38" and 8" but when I measured it up, looked to be real tight.

If you can be patient until this weekend I can measure mine and let you know. I think it's 37 1/2. 8 in yoke is correct I 'm
petty sure.

I got it down off the stands last night and went through the measurements. Had some help from Erwin racing as well. Ended up being 36" shaft with 7" yoke. I had a junk yoke I used for a sample. At ride height I left 2.5-3" of yoke out and measured it up center to center. Then lifted the Left rear so it was just slightly hanging off the ground at full drop and measured with 1" of the yoke out. Pinion angle was at 9 degrees. Wanted to get it ordered ASAP as we have practice on the 18th, 3-4 days shipping and still half a car to finish. Thanks though.
