That's correct Alan. The driveshaft is in the exact same spot now as it was before I did anything to the rear end. The long yoke I was planning on using looked like it would bottom for sure, so I got the short one.

Really dig the rear of that girl.
The '66 bright work and tail lights are just sweet.

Got my new rocker setup together and installed. I decided to go with the Crane ductile iron rockers for now. I couldn't see putting my new Erson's on for a year and on this mild combo.

Here are some pics of the (new to me)Crane vs stock Ford replacement rockers. Lotta material on the Cranes. :)






Crane has a 360° oil groove





Assembled with POP stands, old Speed Pro shafts, and high tension green springs:





Thanks to POP for the excellent stands with end supports and a very generous supply of shims. :)

Looks like a darn good set-up to me. I'd be pretty happy with that for about any street car.
