Is there any difference between a stock rubicon auto and manual driveshaft?
I put a pretty good ding in my driveshaft and now I am getting vibes at 60-65MPH.
I took the jeep to the dealer for some other warranty work and tried to see if they would cover this but no dice.

A buddy of mine just changed out his front and rear driveshafts with aftermarket ones and said I can have his old rear one if I would like. Would his auto shaft work in my manual? Im thinking yes but just want to check here first.

 

yup. No difference.

 

That's what I thought. Thanks for the reply

 

you sure about that?

they seem to sell ones for manuals and autos
i dont know if its a length issue or a flange issue but there is some kind of difference

 

the rears are slightly different, the fronts are the same as long as its the same front axle. I think the D44 has a shorter driveshaft in the front but not by much.

 

I think the fronts are shorter on an auto.

 

Both driveshafts on the automatic are different than the shafts on the 4 door. My understanding is that the front is shorter on the 2 door and the rear is longer on the 4 door.

 

Sorry I know this thread is old, but I have the same question and didn't get a definitive answer above. The question is: on a stock 4-door JK, are there different drive shafts for an auto trans versus a manual trans? Are the fronts the same but the rears different?

Thanks for any help.
