Default Front driveshaft length

Anyone able to measure a ZJ front driveshaft for me?

I need the collapsed and extended lengths from center of the u-joint to center of u-joint.

Thanks.

I would imagine all the slipjoints have the same amount of travel, still have your stock XJ shaft around to measure. Mine are at the shop in storage.

Looks like it's just the tube length that differs between the different GC front shafts. Longest being 4.0L/242, which i have in driveway. I can measure this in the next day or two for ya after the rain stops.
