If you were to disassemble the entire transmission, the last part to come out would be the tail shaft.

It would require the complete disassembly of the transmission because the tail shaft is the last part to come out of the transmission housing.
If you are talking about the SPLND STEEL center shaft that the driveshaft slides over, Then you will have to take the transmission APART to remove the shaft.
the 2wd turbo 350 has a longer tail shaft NEW ANSWER: The center shaft in a 4x4 transmission is longer then a 2 wheel drive trans. The reason is that it has a transfur case on the end of it, and the center shaft must fit into the transfur case to make it work.
replace tail shaft seal. to do this, remove drive shaft first. It helps if the front of the car is pointed down a steep hill. This way you won't loose any trans fluid.
Yes...they are the same. The only thing to look for is the tail shaft length. There is a a short shaft and long shaft.
no it will not fit at all
short tail shaft or long tail shaft trans they are different lengths
No it will NOT interchange. The 350 and 400 turbo are actually VERY different transmissions.
There were turbo 350's with both a short and long tail shaft that fit a chevy. Long shaft were common from 71-76.
The shaft inside the trans will have to be changed it is longer in a 2 wheel drive and the taIL SHAFT.
