for your needs, you can probably get by just fine with a good 1310 shaft. i would recommend something like a JE Reel or Coast as they come with quality spicer or neapco u-joints right from the factory. i have run a myriad of shafts in the past and both of these have worked well for me that i still run both.

Yeah 2012s are a little different in length than previous models.
