Default TH400 driveshaft with yoke needed

My '71 Lemans has a bad vibration that I'm pretty sure is the driveshaft. I used a super long yoke(what I had) which placed the u-joint far from the tailshaft, and had the shaft shortened(swapped in a mid-length tailshaft trans and 8.5 rearend). I think what happened is the long yoke wore the output yoke bushing. I need a shorter yoke and stock driveshaft so I can have it shortened(again) instead of lengthening my driveshaft, which I hear is more difficult and expensive. Any one around SLC in Utah? Thanks, Jim

If you just need a good short 400 turbo yoke i can send just that and you can have another D-shaft shortened .
