this is a cry for help from a friend of mine... he's puting topether a '63 slovenian made (ex yu) 2cv and he run into a problem - which type of male part of the driveshaft does he need?!? or can he just shorten the newer model and fit to the car and oldstyle female part of the driveshat (because the new type fits, but he said it is too long)?
the garbox is model AM 331 96 has a big brumbrakes and a 4 bolts coming out of the drum
he sent me these pics of the gearbox...
any advice will come in handy, tnx on his behalf

Sorry, I don't understand. Do you mean wheel side with male side?
I would than say, something which fits first of all. I think that these kind of gearboxside driveshafts originally had double Ujoint wheelside driveshafts as well. That may however be very different for a original YU 2cv.
Does that make sence? _________________ I like to play |

yes I ment on the wheel side when I said male part
i'm not sure that the differences were that big between YU factory and others because in those yrs they would just assamble the cars not make them from zero up. I was also thinking about that U-joint thing but he said it is to complicated to find those parts (?!?), on the other hand wouldn't be smarter to fit (and shorten if neccesarry) new type of the driveshaft (I assume it works better) because he's not making a perfect restoration but trying to put a car back on the road (he's also instaling a ami6 engine that looks like old 2cv) |

Okay,
well you could either shorten 2cv6 type wheelside drive shaft or get some double Ujoint ones.
If you want double Ujoint ones I may have some, however getting them to Croatia will either be expensive or take a while. _________________ I like to play |

I´ll first have a look if I actually have some short double Ujoint wheelside driveshafts. Moreover you have to wait at least two weeks before I´ll be at my parents place again to check it anyway.
I´ll let you know. _________________ I like to play |

tnx anyway, I think he's in no hurry because he's putting the car together for a couple of yrs now, so 2 weeks wouldn't make any difference |
