74 chevy truck auto conversion

I own a 74 chevy c10 2wd step side Long bed. I am hoping to convert it from standard to auto. I am curious if a same year chevy with a fleet side long bed with an automatic would have the same drive shaft length? or would I have to make one? Basically I am cursious if I can just buy a drive shaft from the junkyard and not have to fabricate anything.

If your vehicle has an 8' step side, they should be the same length. Just measure them to be sure.
