I looked at the chart, didn't see anything on there for what Im trying to do. I have a 440 in a 1973 Challenger, with a 727 transmission and 8 3/4 rear end. Was wondering if anyone knew what my driveshaft length should be? Thanks in advance

:wave: A BB was not a factory option in 1973 that's why it's not listed, just use 70-71, so 45.60"-45.79"

The factory seal has a dust boot , most aftermarket do not, either works , factory is preferable in dirty environments

Factor seal is either Chrysler #2400163 or Timken # 8935S.
