driveshaft are at.<

Dan,

  I seem to recall the length difference between a manual tranny setup an=
d
727 is more like 1".  And I don't remember which is longer.  Anyway, it
wasn't enough difference to matter.

Doug, who didn't change driveline length when switching from T19 to 727.

     
     Dan,
     I just worked on the front shafts of 2 scouts in the last few months.
     Both types, auto and manual trans. The difference I noticed was more 
     in line with Dougs experience. 1/2" to 1" max difference in shaft length.
     later,
     Tony
