Another SYE Driveshaft question

Upon my searching i found that you can't use a driveshaft from an auto cherokee to use on a NP231 and a Manual (AX-15). Is this true? This would be for about 3.5" lift, oh and a 8.25 rear.

Thanks.

Generally not, but....you could....just take it to a driveline shop and have it lengthened....

I believe you can use one from a Grand Chero....they are an inch or so longer....

I went with a ZJ driveshaft:

Thanks for the replies and link.

Stoneattic, i notice you had the 242 tc, length wise, would that be a lot different than my 231?

I used a front TJ shaft and had it shortened. I have an AX15 and 8.25

No difference in length between a 242 and a 231. The length differences are in the manual or auto and what diff you are running.

This listing will give a great idea on what driveshaft length are out there.

If pulling from a wreaking yard, just measure yoke to yoke from the vehicles you are looking at and compare to your own yoke to yoke measurement and get it less than a inch max.
Remember though that all in the listing will not be double cardon joints and some will be CV's that you dont want. Remember that a double cardon joint is the REAL term for what is found on a XJ front shaft and NOT CV which are the Constant Velocity joints found on front wheel drives and new JK and some ZJ's etc which are fully enclosed inside a rubber boot.
