I am working on a 1971 f100 with a 3spd column shift converting to a c4 with a bolt on yoke. The current driveshaft is about 3/4" too long.
Any suggestions / ideas without shortening the shaft?
3.03 trans to c4

Re: 3.03 trans to c4
You could probably redrill the holes in the frame for the engine perches and slide your whole engine and transmission forward that far. Might have to redrill your tranny x/m, acquire longer trans linkage, modify your throttle linkage.... Never mind....have your driveshaft shortened.
