Ordered the Keisler perfect fit automatic-to-manual conversion for my -70 Charger.
They sent me everything except for the drive shaft. Since I´ll let a local work shop
do the installation I need all the parts before I give it to the workshop. Anyone who
have the measurements for the length of the drive shaft for a Charger with 383
and 8 3/4 rear end?
(It's a TKO 600)

just have them do it all except the shaft and then call them with the CORRECT measurement, it it very critical!! thats why they hanlde it that way!!!!

My driveshaft measurement was 58.5", BUT I agree with 1hot68: Its critical to have the shop that's performing the install make the actual measurement on your car.

Once you've called in your measurement, be prepared to wait about 3 weeks for the driveshaft to come in.

Ok, thanks for the replies! Thought the measurements did not differ as long as you used the same model and engine/axle combination as comparison but maybe it does. Guess I´ve to have some patience. Wanted to shorten leadtimes since I live in Sweden but maybe Keisler can have the shaft ready in time.
