According to the Saab Quick Reference Parts Manual for the Classic 
900 1979-1993 (94CV), there are two sets of driveshafts. The first is
for up to the middle of 1986, BUT NOT for 16v turbos.

the other pair is for 1985 & later 16v turbos, All auto trans cars
from mid 1986, and basically all 900s from 1987 & later.

This has NOTHING to do with the length of the driveshafts. Saab
needed a larger inner drive cup & tripot bearing to handle the torque
from the 16v turbo motor. They just decided to put these shafts on
all the cars.

To put an 89 trans in a 1982, all you need is the driveshafts and
inner driver tripot bearings from the 1989 car.
