Probably have to use a rear end from a t-bird, or have a custom drive shaft or yoke made by a shop.

ok cant get pics up loaded but ill keep tryin and oh ill show you the poor mans project in steps and i got my drive shaft back today new you and joints put in also cut down for a good ol 87.00 woot caught a break

Good deal, is it balanced after being cut? Might want to double check for safety, search 05-09 thread someone here had a car ruined by a poorly made drive shaft. If it is balanced that is a hell of a deal and this project is awsome post a new thread on the whole project.

yes it is balanced
