Default 1938 60 HP Drive shaft

Could someone enlighten me if all drive shafts for torgue tubes are the same diameter or is the infamous 60hp drive shaft a smaller diameter. Thank you

No help for quite a while, so I will speak up. Never played with a 60, but since the front u joint is the same as v8's, and the rear differential parts are the same, I have to conclude the shaft is the same too. Length? now that could be different. I have a 60 trans on hand, will measure against a v8 in the morning if no one else pipes in, but I bet its all the same

No I was just wondering about the center support bearing. Not too worried about the length. Thank you cas3
