I have a spare propeller shaft that measurers 27" from the front U joint center to the rear U joint center;

is 34.75+_ overall in length;

has a 1.5" diameter slip yoke;

and a square flange on the other end.

I suspect it is for a 2-seat automatic but I can only find dimensions for manual transmissions on the web.

Can anybody confirm this, or put me on the right track?

Thanks,

John

Thanks for the link but it didn't seem to answer my question of what is it?. I am trying to insert a photo of the slip yoke which has along collar on it, but can't seem to make it work.

These are photos of the driveshaft. Can anybody help identify this?

Sorry, I don't seem to be able to post larger photos, or delete my post anymore.

Looks like the automatic ds…

Thanks for the info. I don't want to appear rude or ungrateful, but is this something you have direct experience with or are you presuming?

The only trans and driveshaft I haven't manhandled are the T5 parts… I'm just not discounting the possibility that yours isn't even for a z31 [archived image: smile.png]

Thanks. It is not for a T-5, according to xenonz31' drawings. I just can't find a photo of the automatic slip yoke end to rule it out.

Thanks for taking a look. It has the same construction technique, same u-joints, same counterweights, same diameter, etc., as the stick's, so I believe it is a Nissan OEM unit, and not aftermarket.

Its an automatic driveshaft as stated.

Thanks to everyone, I'll go with that.
