Hi Bill,
Like somebody already mentioned, get the measurements then head to the bone yard
to fined one the correct length. I went that route when I did our 49.
If you have the correct yoke for the rear of the tranny, and you know what size
joint
matches to the rear the guys at Napa have a book with U-joints listed by size
not
cars/years. I found what I needed for both ends. Most likely you will need an
uneven joint for the front, meaning a different size bearing for the yoke
portion than
the front of the shaft - Napa had em.
Happy holidays, & Good luck
