Lifted glwagon Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 So I have an 88 gl wagon and it needs a new driveshaft, I also have a 86gl sedan, will the driveshaft from the sedan work in the wagon? Because I really dont want to spend 400 bucks on a new one haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_freddo Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 If it’s a front driveshaft for the front end and both are carb then yes. Front and rear shafts are not interchangeable. Cheers Bennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as it's an EA82 sedan ('85+ in the US) with the same transmission, yes, it'll work just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifted glwagon Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 Thats what I was thinking because I measured the wheelbase length wise on both cars and it matches haha thanks a bunch guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
