  1. Ok, first thanks alot everyone for the few bits of info gathered so far. I got under my car yesterday and took a measurement of the front portion of the driveshaft. From the centre of a bolt holding the carrier bearing to to the forward end of the u-joint ear thats welded to the shaft (not including the yoke in the tranny) I have 21 15/16", nearly 22". Could anyone with a 4 cyl auto Ob measure theirs to see if it's the same? This would nearly 100% confirm that a 4 cyl shaft would fit, just a different part number due to being a "heavy duty" bigger tube and possibly bearing . Thanks alot and I hope this works. Vacation starts this Saturday.
  2. Thanks for the quick reply. That I had understood when I started my search. What I have been trying to confirm is if anyone has actually looked at each side by side. I'm quite sure the yoke ends will be the same. What I can't get any info on is if the length and carrier bearing position will be the same on a 2.5 auto. If the length is the same I will go for it. Tube size or a "heavy duty" bearing aren't a concern. I don't tow with it. Thanks again!
  3. Help! Any info greatly appreciated. I need a driveshaft for a 2001 H6 wagon and can't find any locally at a wrecker. I can get as many from 2.5 auto ob's as I want. Is it physically a fit length wise and at the two ends? I'm not concerned if it's just the tube size that's different. Please let me know what you think! Thanks.
