I got a 'spare' rear drive shaft out of a matching XJ in the bone yard.
Renix, np 242, AW4, D-35.
But when I went to try and give it a quick fit in the driveway, it is almost 2" longer than the stock shaft. It will fit, but it is all the way against the slip yoke, meaning no more compression.
Now I realize than means I have a little more extension, before the D-shaft falls off the slip yoke, but I am worried, it would do a ton of damage when the axle tried to cycle up.
Here is a pic of two together:
any ideas???
