Cool Need help in the South Hill area asap

Adrian, called me, he is at the Pullyalup Lowes with a broken drive shaft.
I think it's the large flange 83-85', he is stuck and needs some help.
He can be reached at 1-253-841-4200, PRESS 0 and ask to have him paged. He works at the lowes.

damn That sucked. I sure hope it's the driveline. It's either the drive line or the output shaft of the tranny. Won't know until tomarrow I guess. Most likely the drive shaft though...

Well check this out. Turns out early 83's still had large pinion flanges. They didn't make the switch to the larget until later in the production... 2 hours in the rain to figure that out. Off to drivelines NW to see how much to swap yokes. If not doesanyone have a small pinnion flange. Or a large pinnion yoke driveshaft for me?

nope I have a 85 style shaft. i need the small pinnion flange aswell.
79-<83.5 large flange
>83.5-85 small flange

I've all ready got a good small flange shaft and a big flange rearend.
Just back from NW drivelines and they said they can't interchange the yokes. So I either need a small pinnion flange or a good large yoke driveshaft.
