driveshaft lengths

[240DRFT]

what are the lengths of the 89-90 auto and manual, 91-94 auto and manual and 95-98 auto and manual driveshafts.

the reason i ask is because i have a 90 240 and i swapped in a 96 ka/transmission and the transmission is about an inch or two shorter than the sohc's transmission. thanks.

i dont know if abs or hicas matters, but just adding those in

abs/hicas are one in the same(they came on the same cars as a package). The main difference is in the rear end. For your application you just need a manual transmission driveshaft from a 91-94 car and it will bolt up(unless your running an abs/vlsd rear end).

If you really want me too I can go measure my auto/ABS s13 driveshaft for you. It's just laying on the floor of my garage.

so its just that sohc trannys and dohc trannys are different lenghts?

do i need the whole driveshaft or could i use like just the front half or rear half? also what if i want to get a vlsd? thanks.

i dont need u to measure it, thanks though.

all 240sx manual trannies are identical, period, its the rear diff where the differences are

are you doing the transmission conversion?

[240DRFT]

i had a ka24e, then i put in a 96 ka24de, and now the driveshaft is too short

[FreeRunS13]

the automatic driveshaft is shorter than the M/T driveshaft so that could be the problem

[240DRFT]

i didnt have an auto, and the new one isnt an auto either

[FreeRunS13]

what driveshaft are you using?

[240DRFT]

the one that came on my car. 90 240sx manual

[FreeRunS13]

from what ive heard you cant use the s13 drivshaft with the s14 transmission so im guessin thats why. but if you find out something else let me know

[240DRFT]

it fits and works. ive been drving it around. it just that its about an inch too short, so it drips fluid, but very very little, very very slowly.
