    Drive Shaft

    Want to buy a drive shaft, mine is pretty much toast and I was hoping to pick one up local that is in good shape. Let me know if anyone has one or knows someone that has one. Thanks.

    I have one out a 318is, I do not know if it is the same length as the 6 cylinder models. If it is the same length let me know and I can pull it for you in the coming week.

      if it isn't the same length, I am next in line, I think I need a new driveshaft. I also need your door, fender, shadowline trim, etc etc

          I'm looking for one too. Was going to drop the coin to get a re-man unit, but would love to source one locally...

            From what I have read the 318 drive shaft will not work in a car with a 6cyl motor. There might be some possibilities with an early model 318 and a different csb but I would rather not mess with it. So sam, its yours if you want it.

                        I did go over and check yesterday, too busy getting drunk to post on here sorry.

                        Is this what you are looking for:

                          Thanks for looking, I think I need the whole thing and I probably need a CSB and flex disk too, so I think I'm gonna save up and get one with the replaceable u joints that comes with everything.

                            I'm pulling mine tomorrow. Boulder driveline will stamp new U joints in for a reasonable price. It's not quite as good as a reman and he can't balance it, buy it should get me through the winter. I got a new flex disc, hardware, and CSB going back in with it.

                            FYI, there's an '89 vert manual at Aurora Pick and Pull. The aft U joint was stiffer in one direction, but not seized. Not sure if a vert shaft is different.

                              No to hijack the thread but I need the rear part of the drive shaft and looks like Stoliver54 has it.. do you have more pics of the shaft.
