My truck that I pulled the axles from was a 94 c&c factory drw so that explains why mine is narrow

Driveshaft stays the same SRW to DRW... the exception is going between different series axles i.e. Dana 70 vs 80. The 80 has a longer pinion, and needs a shorter driveshaft.... or a lift to eat up the excess.
