These are quite light, actually.

If you need some, get a set from vette2vette.com, his used prices will be very attractive.



Thanks. The measurements are far less important now. I've actually dug up a few folks who've done what I want to do. Shortening a set of C4 shafts for my C3. The weight differences seem to be worth the couple hundred it'll cost to have them shortened. I know they use the same joint so really I just have to take my stock shaft in with the C4 shafts, and he can measure from one to the other.

I have no doubts the shaft will hold up fine to my non aggressive driving style.

The project actually started out as a research job I was doing to see what it would take to put the aluminum D44 from the late C3 into my '77 to replace the iron unit. So far it's a mountain of fabrication that may not be worth the 30lbs.
