Guest hwk60 Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Is the drive shaft for this car(280z with 350, auto trans.) inter-changeable with a 240z driveshaft? Also is there a required mod for a 280z with a JTR SBC 350V8 conversion. Speaking about the drive shaft. I have a chance to pick up a kick ass deal on a 280z hybrid JTR car but the driveshaft was misallligned or the U-joints gave out or something....any advice would be welcome at this point. Thanks.

Mike kZ Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 A 240Z driveshaft will not be a bolt in. These V8 Zs need to have custom drivshafts. JTR has a diff flange part # DAT-110 "The driveshaft flange bolts to the Z Car differential and uses a Dana #1310 U-joint, which was commonly used on most Chevrolets in the 1960s and through the early 1970s. The pilot diameter on the flange is 2.25 inches in diameter. All 1970-1978 Z Cars came with the 2.25" pilot diameter. Later (ZX) cars came with either a 2.25" or 2.00" pilot diameter. If the differential has the 2.00" pilot, the pinion flange will need to be changed to one with a 2.25" pilot." https://shell7.tdl.com/~jags/Pages/Parts_DAT200.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
