also, here is a link to a thread that specifies lengths of drive shafts. measure the front portion that you have and see what you find out.

Buy a 1- piece driveshaft for your car. Specify if it has ABS or not and make sure it's for a 5spd. This will save you the headache of finding the "correct" front half and eliminate your probably bad center carrier bearing in the process.

where do you get a 1 pc D/S and how much do they cost? also how do i identify if it has abs or not? i do not see a big abs pump with any mess of hardlines so i assume it is a non abs s14.
any pics showing what cover to leave off? i thought crap/debris would get in there and tear up the chains/what not.
