Need size measurements for a new driveshaft.
a lady I’m helping her driveshaft blew up.
we will have to buy one brand new, which complicates things. Please let me know. The boys at Jeepforum are kinda silent.

I looked on RockAuto, but new seems a bit pricey. Don't you have wrecker yards in CO? Also you need to know what type of rear axle you have...Dana 35 or Chrysler 8.25. A good picture of the rear cover would help. Did she loose the shaft completey?, did it bust a lug?

The only 92 at the wreckers has the DS removed and not sure I’ll get a picture this weekend

Ok, A 91-95 with the short transfer case output housing ( normal for those years) should fit but you will need to know axle no matter what direction you go in. Sadly when i junked my 92 a long time ago, I only removed the front driveshaft
