    Who has replaced rear U joints?

    Has anybody replaced their U joints between the driveshaft to diff with any success? I really don't want to replace the entire driveshaft, as the only one I have on hand is for a 325is and my car is a 4 cylinder...

    They are not "replaceable", per se.

      I just "replaced" mine.

      Went like this:

      1. Take out driveshaft.
      2. Change tailshaft.
      3. reinstall driveshaft.

      As for your current issue, Aren't all the 5 speed driveshafts the same length? I do know the auto and manual tailshafts are identical, as the CSB mount only goes in one place (and I've had both in my hands).

        So before I replace my driveshaft with the one from my 325 does anyone know for sure if they are interchangeable?
