Re: trailer hitch

Ben The one for 'Lifestyle" era trucks will fit. :2cents I got one @ U-Haul. Depends on the bumper style. You should be able to take one and try it out and return it if it doesn't work.

Re: drive shaft length

From what I've seen in other people's posts about similar swaps I think drive shafts are going to be the LEAST of your issues.

Input shaft size and spline count, depth, bell housing, trans mount, clutch linkage, etc, etc.

Try doing a SEARCH for more info. :2cents
