If I am correct they should be the SAME lengths as a Sierra's drive shafts. That is to say they fit Straight into a luego Viento (Designed
around Sierra rear suspension) WITHOUT ANY modifications.
As mounted in car :-
n/s 470mm drive face to drive face
o/s 510mm drive face to drive face
Enjoy.
Personally I originally thought that I would have to get them shortened. Until I test fitted them and they went staight in with the upper wishbone
adjustment set to its shortest length. I have 2.0 pinto injection (1989) AND Deisel drive shafts from the later granada (1995)
Hope this helps.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

I believe its not that easy as the shafts are hardened steel. Stuart Taylor does shorten them for his cars. Geoff Berrisford (wrong spelling, look up
NS Dev posts on GB Engineering) does new shafts.
I'll soon be looking to get my sierra shafts shortened / remade.
