Driveshaft help

Post by Prelude danny » Thu Dec 08, 2016 7:03 pm

I'm going to be doing a auto to manual conversion and I'm getting a intermediate shaft bit will part of my auto Driveshaft fit into the intermediate shaft or do I need to buy a new shaft to go into the intermediate shaft??

The long bar below is what my car has now

yep the manual car has a intermediate shaft which goes into the gearbox and the passenger side manual driveshaft (shorter than the auto shaft) fits onto that.
you can use a 5th gen intermediate shaft instead of a 4th gen one - its a bit lighter alloy than the heavy steel one on the 4th gen but you will need a manual passenger side driveshaft to fit to it. :)

I'll stick with the 4th Gen intermediate shaft, I've just bought the intermediate shaft, I just need a manual Driveshaft to fit it
