jimoshel Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 If it's the same engine, transmission and transfer case the front DS will fit. The back one won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvusse Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Have a drive train shop adapt your stock drive shaft. Not cheap, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Have a drive train shop adapt your stock drive shaft. Not cheap, though. Don't they make U-joints that have two caps for the Jeep driveshaft, and the other two for a Ford axle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comanche County Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I searched long and hard for a stock OEM driveshaft from any vehicle that would work when I did my 8.8 swap...I don't think one exists. It could be out there though. Also you'll need the flange adapter that comes on the exploder driveshaft. Its a 1330 U-joint, your Manche has a 1310. I ended up having my MJ DS cut to length and used a 1330/1310 conversion joint for the flange. To do it right, get it cut to length (with a double cardon if you've got a SYE) and have the shop install a 1330 yoke on your DS...its stronger and you don't have to mess with a weaker conversion joint.

Motion Offroad Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 You need the yoke Spicer #221379. This will allow you to run your factory driveshaft & u-joint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comanche13 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 lengthen a front driveshaft after you get the SYE for the rear I was told this is a cheap way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
