So the easiest way to tell whether your box is too long or not would be to jack it up to it's approximate position and try and install the tail shaft.

If the tail shaft fits then it's merely the gearboxes mout that is in the wrong place and as you say you may have to fiddle with the mount by possibly making up a plate.
