Bought this driveshaft on here last year and it was just an inch or two too short for my k5, and rather than lengthen it, i sprung for a cv style shaft. I dont have measurements but i can get them if someone is interested, it seems to be set up for like 4-6" of lift (i have about 7" and it worked but was sticking out of the tcase more than it probably should). I only have probably 10 street miles on it since i bought it and other than that its been just on the truck while it was parked. U joints are good. I used it with a np208 and 14 bolt

Here is the thread where i bought it: http://coloradok5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=307176


Looking to get $90 plus shipping
 
I do still have it, I wanna say it was like 3-4" sticking out, but the slip yoke was 7 or 8" so it had a good 3"+ engagement plus the fact that the output shaft extends slightly past the housing, so i wasnt worried about it slipping off. I just got a good deal on a cv shaft and jumped on it. I didnt drive it enough to know if it would have had vibrations or not, but i did shim it and i matched the angles so theoretically it should have been okay.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
 
im definitely interested the only other thing is do you know how long the length of the shaft tube is, as well as the length of the yoke
 
i can measure it later tonight, im not home right now. Ill let ya know later. thanks for the interest.
 
heres some measurements:

slip yoke is 6" total, like i said i had about half engaged

weld to weld on the tube is ~27"

center to center of the u-joints is 31.5"

center of bottom u-joint to end of slip yoke is 39"

Let me know if there is anything else you need
