melfice_mx Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Can the stock 280z driveshaft be used with an 1995 chevy lt1 swap and auto tranny? or does it NEED to be replaced by a chevy one? Thank you.. i ordered the JTR manual and kit but i'm still waiting for it. Thnks in advance.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deja Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I would not trust the Datsun shaft. I went with a cut down Z28 steel shaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Juday Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 The JTR kit comes with the pinon adapter to mate the Datsun differencial to a GM drive shaft u-joint. You will need a GM drive shaft. After you have the motor and tranny in the correct position you can measure to determine how much you will need to shorten the shaft. The manual will explain all this in detail so you should have no worries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
