Plan on a t-case swap since Chevys are passenger side drop. X2 on the 10 bolt but you can find open knuckle 44s.

Running full-width would be preferable, but if that’s not in-line with your build goal you can have the existing shafts cut and resplined. It is not a difficult operation and should not be expensive.

Also, since the housings will be shortened a somewhat arbitrary length, finding a drop-in shaft may not be feasible.
