Driveshaft problems

Hey everybody wondering if i can get some input about my current headache. Before i start i really dont need to get flamed here, yes i have tried researching but couldnt find anything about my particular problem.

Im doing a s13 blacktop sr swap into my 98 s14. It has abs and vlsd. I ordered a driveshaft from the driveshaftshop through frsport and finally got to putting it on. I ordered a s14 steel driveshaft with abs. I finally got to putting it on and it doesnt fit. Its to long. At first i thought it wasnt going in all the way but i think it is. The u-joint is like 3/8inches away from end of tranny. The driveshaft is a little less than 1/2 an inch to long. At this point i thoight they sent me the wrong one since non abs is a bit longer. But i looked at the box and its the right one. Theres no real way to confirm this because the driveshaft doesnt really have a part number on it.

Anyway i looked up lengths of what it should be and in the process I looked up the part again on frsport. And it actually has the full length listed. With abs from tip to tip the drive shaft is supposed to be 49.25 inches. So i measure mine from tip to tip and it was actually slightly shorter about 49 even. So now im really confused because it seems it is the right one but it doesnt fit. It says the thing is for KA/sr20 so i assume it was for all sr20 and they dont specify on none of there driveshafts which sr it is. But maybe it has something to do with a s13 driveshaft into s14? I dont know guys ill post some pics tomorrow if i get feed back, of me test fitting it but ive tried a dozen times and it doesnt go any further into the tranny. Lmk guys maybe im forgetting something stupid but ive puzzled over it for half the day. Im goig to try contacting the driveshaft shop monday to see if i can get any info.
