I wouldn't even try to make it work. the slip yoke isn't the main problem, as i'm sure you could change that. The fact it is to short is your problem.

Solution: Buy the 6 speed transmission.

A six speed transmission would be nice. Im sure its a pretty expensive swap. I definitely learned my lesson. What DS you guys suggest.

if you take it back I doubt they will give you your money back. they arent a good company. All I have heard are bad things from them. I also saw the ad on craigslist for the driveshafts and emailed them to see if it would fit with my 5speed and no response. They seem to squeeze around the fact that it wont work. If it did work then they would tell you it works. That would be a good selling point and Im sure the price would be higher. they know you are going to have problems and dont tell you. just tryin to make money. bad customer service. bad business. Id either get a 6-speed or throw it up on ebay and see what it brings.
