I'm going from a 700R4 to a 200-4R and when I went to the 700 I had to shorten my driveline now I need to lengthen it and would like to have everything ready so when my new 200-4R gets here I'm not waiting more time while the driveline is shortened. From what I gather it needs to be the turbo 350 length?
Thanks,
Mike

TH-350, PG and 200-4R all use the same length d/s.

I don't think a drive shaft shop will lengthen your shaft if that's what you're thinking. I had one with a dent a couple of inches from the end and the shop replaced the whole tube using my ends. I went in thinking they would just whack off the end and weld in a new piece, not so. Anyway the cost once done with new joints and balanced was close to the price of a new one. Upside was I didn't have to pay shipping and if it wasn't right it was easy to take back. So, you might want to check into a new one as well. You should have had 3" taken out of yours but unless you know that for fact I wouldn't bet on it. I know that didn't answer your question but just wanted to throw it out there.

Thanks Robert, I know what you mean on the lengthing. I had this shortend about 900 miles ago All new u-joints and one new yoke. Thats why I want to get a new tube installed. The guy that did this does awesome work. He quoted me about 125.00 to retube it, and as you said no freight. I just needed a length for him, or else I'll have to order a new one from Ricks.
Thanks.
