drive shaft fitment 208/ 241
- Thread starter sandypants

GM seems to have basically standardized the length of driveshafts in 81. I was able to remove a 700r4 / NP208 and bolt an NV4500 / NP241 directly in it's place without needing to change my driveshafts. I also used the same driveshafts with an SM465 / NP208 combo at one point in the same truck. Also an NV3500 / NP241 in another truck.
So to answer your question, yes, you should be able to use the driveshaft from the TH400 / NP208 truck in the SM465 / NP241 truck. The slip yolks are the same between the two.

yup, slips are the same.If memory serves, those combos are the same length too, so shaft length will work as well.

Well they fit but the 400 with the 208 was 2" longer than the sm465/241 combo but worked out better cause i moved the axel back 1.5 inches:d
