Stock DS will not work if you are doing just a bolt in app.

Trust me, I got a Denny's DS with my car and come to find out it was too short and ended up twisting the splines on the output shaft.

PM me if you have any questions

Ive got the M9 and used the stock driveshaft with a conversion u joint and worked fine. Ive just replaced it with a Spohn chomoly one now thats stronger and it works fine.

The driveshaft should be one inch longer than the stock driveshaft, although many people have used the oem driveshaft without any problems. If the rear has a 1350 yoke, you need a Napa 447 conversion u joint to make it work with the stock driveshaft. Bob
