Series 6 & 8 Driveshafts
Hi All,
I’m doing a automatic to manual transmission conversion on my 1995 Touring X. I have sourced a driveshaft from a manual series 8. The wrecker selling the shaft said the spline is longer, too stop vibration.
Does anyone know if a series 8 driveshaft will fit into the series 6 gearbox and mount/work without issues ? Would this extra spline length cause any dramas ?
Thanks

i think the splines and rear flange is the same, its just length that would be different....
lengths are in the fsm's
