BillZ260 Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 This DS is for sale on the site... http://hybridz.org/nuke/modules.php?op=modload&name=zClassifieds&file=detail&cat=63&de=691 He stated that it is 22 3/4" center to center on the u- joints, 26" from diff flange to the end of the Yoke. I measured my car with T-5 installed and it is 23-5/8" from the face of the bare diff flange to the rear seal of my T-5. First Question is...Will the TH350 Yoke slip into the T-5 and will DS fit? If I need to get a new yoke for the DS to fit my T-5, then will DS length work? I don't know anything about tranny/driveshat/component exchange. I guess I need to know what my measurement would be center to center based upon my measurment from surface to surface. Make sence? Any help is appretiated!

dmyntti Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I looks to me like that driveshaft would be to long for your conversion. The point you measured at the rear diff. would be the center of the rear U-joint. You would end up with less than an inch from the center of the front U-joint to the transmission. There would be no way a yoke would fit much less have the required spacing to keep it from bottoming out on the transmission. Your best bet is to get a driveshaft froma donor with a T-5. Install the yoke in the transmission and space it back (I believe 1/2" is recommended) and measure the distance between U-joint centers. Then take the whole driveshaft down to a driveshaft shop and have them build it for you. The last shaft I had made cost me $150 and that was lengthened requiring a new tube be installed.
