Stock length wont fit anymore and wont be accurate for a 9". You will just need to measure it again, its very easy

You should probably just take it to a junk yard, or burn it.

M6 or Auto? The manual length (if there is a difference) I believe from the centers of the front/rear u-joints is 41.5", however because you have a 9" you may need one around 1/2" longer. Perhaps someone will chime in, or call Moser and find out.

Manual vs. auto driveshafts are the same from the factory.

Steve, I told you that you need to measure it yourself to make sure you've got the right length. Any reputable company won't sell you a driveshaft unless you have a measurement.

Here's how to measure: http://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/how_to_measure.html

Alright, so the PST 3.5" that i have on there now measures 41 5/8". Is that the correct length for a 9" moser? I am trying to figure out if its too short because i think thats what is causing the nasty vibration over 80mph
