I have no idea. I hadn't looked into it really, Seth just mentioned pulling the front out of a late model auto I think.

It's still good to measure so you get the correct amount of slip in the ds

Also what kinda yoke do you have on your axle. If like Madi she has a different one unless they changed it. I can't remember though

ben has an np231 and madi has an np242. hers is a flange style on the tcase side because you can only get a hack and tap type sye for hers.
Ben when you get the sye installed meausre center of u joint to center of ujoint at ride height to get the length needed for your driveshaft. take the measurement to the junkyard and start measuring front shafts. if you have any other questions let me know.
