It has square drive in and 10 spline out. .

I checked the joints I have and only one is 7/8" square drive with speedo gear and 10 spline to the drive shaft. The part number on the longer (driveshaft yoke) is 357493 no number on the shorter trans end yoke. Overall length is approximately 5-3/4"

. Part number #357493 Group 5.555, is the rear yoke for a 1930 - 33 three speed passenger and half ton except for 1933 "Standard" (AKA: Bastard). This is possibly because the Bastards used a riveted U-joint not sold separately. .

Wow! You guys are all over this. I do not know what I have yet, I am planning on pulling the drive train in the next couple of weeks. Once it is separated, I will take some pics and post them. I believe mine is in good shape, however there is a knock in the tranny area. This only occurs in first gear, and will fade in and out at higher rpms. I am thinking 1st gear bushing or the u joint. leaning more towards bushing, since there was the tell tale shiny brassy flakes in the trans fluid when I changed it.

Thank you gentlemen for the information, I will post pictures when apart.
