afaik the 700r4 only came with one shaft length on the 2wd and only one for the 4wd. can you verify that it came with multiple lengths? not saying youre wrong cause i may be wrong and i need to know. but the shifting linkage will be the same.

Adjust the TV cable before you drive it

Do NOT drive it without it being adjusted properly

Doing so WILL burn up the 700
