For 1933-1934 Fords, regardless of what engine they had, 4 or V8, they were both built on exactly the same chassis & wheelbase. The difference in length is only in the Drive Shafts, to accommodate for the longer 4 cylinder engines.
The length of the Drive shaft in the V-8 = 60 5/32” while the Drive shaft in the 4 cylinder = 58 7/16”
It follows that the Tube on the 4 cylinder was shorter by same amount.

Part # is 40 4504.

Red's vintage parts has one. Maybe they will measure it for you

Trevor, from Ford of Canada Service Bulletin page 125:
18-C-4505 = 53 23/32"
40-C- 4505 = 61 7/8"
46-C-4505=60 11/64"
No mention of body styles
Drive shaft lengths are also given.
