Auto ABS Driveshaft for S13 VLSD swap? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Ok I know the driveshaft for the VLSD with ABS is supposed to be shorter. My question is if I have an Automatic ABS driveshaft can I swap the transmission spline end off the manual driveshaft to it and it still be short enough for the swap?

FYI I am swapping in a 95 J30 VLSD into a 93 HB I have axles and all drive shaft is my only concern.

THANKS!

my experience is that you cannot bolt the auto d/s peices to the manual ones. slightly different bolt pattern/flange
but I would still try it.
most ppl just use stock d/s and its fine.

I am thinking more along the lines of knocking out the u joint and replacing it with the manual splined end. So i would use all of the auto driveshaft except for the splined piece itself I just want to make sure that it is shorter on the tail piece of the drveshaft.

just swap the rear section of the auto driveshaft onto your manual one. the only difference for abs is in the rear section.
