92 KA Driveshaft too short for SR?!?! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hello everyone,
We just bolted the engine and transmission down and began working on inserting the driveshaft into the transmission. The front half of the KA driveshaft slid smoothly all the way into the transmission BUT.....when we went to bolt the rear half of the driveshaft back up, we found that we had to pull the front portion out of the transmission about an inch.

Is there a way to lengthen either half by loosening a few bolts? Has this ever happened to anyone else? Are we missing something here?

In the picture below, you'll see the tranny on the left and the drive shaft on the right....

Thanks!
