Drive shaft swap

[ben rodriguez]

Will a 2003 tahoe drive shaft fit on a 2006 chevy 1500 crew cab short bed by any chance?

You'll have to measure each shaft from the tip of the yoke to the center of the fixed part of the rear u-joint, and compare. I doubt anyone will have that information off the top of their head, unless they work with drivelines every day.

 

On that note, you might have better luck asking that question at a hot rod builder, or transmission / differential shop. They'd know, and if not, they have access to the right info.

No.  Wheelbase between the two is NOT the same.  It's about 2 feet shorter, 116in wheelbase in the Tahoe, 143in for a crew cab short bed truck.
