I want to go to the u-pull-it yard to get a drive shaft. They have about 4 first gens there.

I needed to know what models and years I can get one off of for my 5 speed 84 gs 12a, Its got rear drum brakes still and everything.

One is an auto, will that fit? Will any 12a driveshaft fit? What years will fit in mine?

I need answers quick so I can fix my car befor the 29th

Thanks
Ryan

 

anyone?

 

www.mazdatrix.com has answers...

 

Alright, i dont know why I didnt look there. Found the info i needed

 

i got an 84 5spd drive shaft if you want it. sell it to you for $25+S/H

 

alright, thanks for all the offers guys.

Im gonna look at the yard tomarrow. If i dont find one there.......

 

HERE at mazdatrixs down in the driveshaft section. For my 84 5speed, It says all 83(including auto) and 84-85(5speed) drive shafts will fit my car.

Is this what its saying?

 

auto wont fit and nethier will one out of an 82 standard 5 spd that what i learned

 

really? Then why do they sell the same one for 83 auto and 84-85 5speed?

 

?

 

I'd like to know why some drum car drivesshafts work with disc rears and some don't.
I've swapped a lot of rears on 84-85's and twice I've not had to change the shaft and once I did have to change it.
