Post subject:  Driveline length question

My 67 FSM states that Darts of that year with Manual, 3 or 4 speed transmissions and either a 170, 225 or a 273 with 7 1/4 rear ends have a driveline length of 54.61". However they do not differentiate between 2 door cars and four doors. I know that the wheel base is 3 inches longer from the 4 dr to the 2 dr.
My dart is a 904 auto. 2 door GT model.
I really need a driveline to get my project into the final stages.
There is a 4 door 68 with a driveline sitting in a junk yard aquite a ways from here. Anybody know if that one will work?

The 2-door hardtops and convertibles like your GT are on the 111" wheelbase, same as the 4-door cars. The driveshaft from the '68 4-door will work as long as it's got a 7ΒΌ" rear axle.
