Seeing I didn't get any responds on my previous post, I'll tell you I bought the rockauto axles with a bearing set and they bolted straight in.
so I'm now rocking 17" Jeep steelies, I just had to modify the center gap.
and now instead of 55 at 3500rpm, I get 65 at 3500 rpm.
Thus I decided to put in the 700r4 I had laying around, which bolted straight in, because my th350 was a long tail, so no modification needed at the driveshaft.
the 700r came with the correct tv cable and converter.
Now I've run into a snag, but that you can read here at the engine thread.

anyhow, the reason for putting in the 700r4 is because I'll be driving the truck to Poland for the summer where we visit family from my wifes side.
it's only a 1600Mi roundtrip, but 99% highway hence the tranny swap.
with the tranny off, I got a good look of the engine from behind and realised just how oily it was, turned out my valve cover bolts were just hanging on by the last thread, so I got some cleaning to do. In the meantime I have a question. what should be connected to this pipe?
while changing the valve cover gaskets, I also proceded to change my plugs.
which with the car on a 4 column lift isn't easy when you're 5,6"
and I just have to ask.. do you have any differental ****ting type bird in the US?
what do you think of my 4yo..she wanted the keys!
