So I'm trying to find a list of good drive shafts that can be swapped into the rear of an XJ with an SYE installed.
I have a '91 XJ with a manual (ax-15) transmission, np231 with a soon to be installed SYE and 7 inches of lift.
I'm trying to save a few bucks and use a front drive shaft for the rear. I just don't have 300+ bucks to buy a custom drive shaft at the moment.
Does anyone have a link or measurements/specs on drive shafts from other Jeep vehicles that can be good canidates for the rear of my '91 5 speed? I know I'm probably gonna have to do some fabrication and or have a shop balance the end result. But from what I've researched on the net and through forums, it is cheaper if you have decent fab skills.
I already have spare front and rear drive shafts from a '91 (automatic) Cherokee. Can I make one of these work?
Also, are manual cherokee drive shafts longer or shorter than automatic drive shafts?
Thanks

Yes, the aw4 is longer than the ax15. So the front shaft is slightly longer

I have the AX-15 in my cherokee and a spare front drive-shaft from an AW4 equipped cherokee. So from what I'm reading... my spare AW4 front drive-shaft might be long enough for the rear? Say 6-7 inches? Or is it not long enough cause I have the AX-15.
