Yes

If BA also has about 2" end play perhaps that's normal for the I6...I know on the V8s 3/4 to 1" is about normal.


And I dont remember any trick for holding that bolt in place...I did it a long time ago...cant you reach it from the inside and put an end wrench on it????

nope, the head of the bolt is wayyy to tight quaters to even slip a socket over just to holt it and break it free. I'm kinda stuck. I know how much trouble it can be when the nut rotates with the bolt !

I have T5, V8 driveshaft, and 8" rear end. The driveshaft was 1" shorter than my I6 driveshaft. I read you had to have it shortened so I bought that one.
