The stock driveshaft is 60".
You should be able to push the yoke forward just enough to remove the driveshaft from rearend. |

I remember a local driveshaft place telling me that the yoke should be 3/4" out from as far as it would go into the trans. The 1" stated above is right in line with that.

I have read 5/8" but in any case it's in the ballpark.
In a related case, my son has a 2000 Trans Am and the rear end had some slop so he chose a Strange S60 3:73 i believe and had vibes on deceleration. Long story short took it to a 'respected' driveline place where they messed with the rear diff but no real success. The driveshaft was also changed with the axle. I was examining it and noticed the trans yoke had about 1-3/4" of slop in the insertion depth. I feel that could contribute to the original problem. He has not taken any action on it yet so I don't know if it's a problem or not. George
