    Driveshaft and Yoke help!

    OK I need some help/advive/info ASAP and Id appreciate it so much! Im doing the LS1 swap into my 06 gmc as we speak and Ive ran in to a little problem. I converted my 4wd tranny into a 2wd. Got a brand new 60e trailhousing for trucks, sensors, gaskets and everything else and the output shaft I need.

    My truck is a Crew cab short bed (short short bed) and I have the one piece aluminum driveshaft, but the yoke is setup for a 4wd tranny and I thought it would work for the 2wd tailhousing and output shaft but I dont think its going to. Can I get a 2wd yoke for the driveshaft and just do it that way or am I going to have to get a 2wd driveshaft for a crew cab truck?

    If I end up needing a yoke or driveshaft or both, I dont know where to find these online so shoot me a reply on here PLEASE so I can go buy it! I appreciate yalls help! Im just ready to get the truck on the road!

    Let me get things straight.

    1. The yoke is too large? Yoke is too small?

    2. Length is too short?

    The yoke is too large to fit into the tailhousing, Im hoping the driveshaft length is ok and I can just put a different yoke on it, I basically need someone with a crew cab short short bed to post up a picture of theirs, or get the exact same setup they have. I know the 4wd transfercase is a bit longer than the 2wd tailhousing. I just haven't gotten that far yet :/
