dirtlord420 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 ok I'm looking for a drive shaft for my 88 jeep comanche 4.0 auto long wheelbase. the qustion is will the manual transmission drive shaft work? I'm guessing no, but doesnt hurt to ask. also if i have to have one made about how much does it cost and how long do they take? or where can i find one? i wouldnt mind a used one. need one right away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidoo_j Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 In the DIy forum there's a page that goes over the stock lengths of drivelines. If you have to order a new one there's probably a local shop near you or you can always get one from tom woods or something similiar. Expect to pay anywhere from 200-400 depending on what you're ordering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtlord420 Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 the chart doesnt have the info on the 4x2 lwb. i email a guy on ebay who has a 5spd one for sale for the measurement, and i will compare it to mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 2WD LWB w. AW4, D35, 4.0 = 60" length u-joint to u-joint.2WD LWB w. AW4, D44, 4.0 = 59" length u-joint to u-joint.With manual transmission = :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtlord420 Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 I'm waiting on a reply but I'm guessing it should be the same as the manual. in the 2wd swb the length didnt change only in the axle. swb,_4.0,____aw4,__________2wd,_____d44= 52.125"_d35= 53.125" * swb,_4.0,____ax15-ba10/5,__2wd,_____d44= 52.125"_d35= 53.125" * does any one know if the auto trans is the same length as the manual trans? does anyone have the factory part numbers for the drive shafts? i found two drive shafts for manual for around 100 and the auto 300. i might take a gamble and get the manual. for the price of 300 i would rather have a new one built. are the splines in the output shaft the same? i wonder if i could switch them out.

dirtlord420 Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 do you think they use a different part number bc the splines are different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 does any one know if the auto trans is the same length as the manual trans? No, at least not the Peugot. When I swapped out the BA 10/5 for the AW4 (4x4) I had the drive shaft shortened by 1.25". I have a D44. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
