Turbo Drive shaft

[zmike]

Can anybody help me determine if the ZX drive shaft is the same for the auto as for the T-5? I am sure there is probably a lenth difference..? But what about the trans input shaft difference?? And what about the third member yoke connection????? I have been told that the T-5 ZX shaft uses a different yoke (pinion shaft) connection that is VERY slightly off square with the 4 bolt holes, so a normal yoke (pinion shaft) connected third memeber won't work..????

 

thanks

I'll venture a bet you are talking about the the one in the center.

 

This is the same flange used on the 280zx turbo automatic cars.

 

Now the yoke that fits into the tranny tailshaft on the 280zx non turbo automatics should also fit the fs5w71b tranny........at least it did on my 1984 maxima.

 

The yoke that fits the tranny tailshaft of a 280zx turbo automatic has the same outside diameter as the non-turbo but the output shaft is thicker.

 

Sadly.....I have no information on the T5 driveshaft.

 

I will measure a 280zx turbo automatic driveshaft tomorrow and post the dimensions here.
