drive shaft question

[j0hnnybk01]

i am doing a sr20det swap into my 240sx and i have a 300zx Vlsd and its open diff but im looking to buy a one piece drive shaft but its either vlsd but not open diff or open diff not compatible with vlsd and im confused anyone know wich i should get ??

Your question is confusing, I'll show you why. The vlsd part of the differential matters not, when it comes to a 1pc drive shaft. ABS does, the differential snout is longer on the ABS units, making the drive shaft shorter. Vlsd shouldn't matter unless they're linking VLSD to abs. foolish, in our swap parts world. Then again i may be wrong!

yeah thats what i was thinking but this is my fisrt rwd so i was like maybe im wrong but thanks for the advice man

just get a sr20 one piece drive shaft.

the differential doesn't not matter, only the casing.

you want a one piece driveshaft non abs. It does not matter if its for KA or SR they have the same input splines. The only difference between a stock sr driveshaft and KA driveshaft is the SR ones did not have the big heavy (lol) rubber damper connector.

Now whoever you are talking to about driveshafts is indeed mixing up the ABS with VLSD. Not all VLSD's came with ABS on the snout. Your z32 2300zx VLSD being an example of ABS not being on the snout.

Hence why you need a non ABS driveshaft which would be slightly longer than a ABS driveshaft.

Its a 1/2" btw. I made a spacer after swapping housings on my car, so either way a non-abs will still work; just with less yoke engagement.

either way, home boy above ^ hit the nail on the head...

I've never got a driveline from them, but they are a legitimation supplier. I've got more than a few things from them in the past.
