im in the process of installing my 9 inch in my 01 camaro. im to the drive shaft now. i know it needs to be an inch longer. im just gonna have mine cut and lengthened for now until i can afford a good ds. my question is what u joint do i need? would i be better off having them put a ford yoke on the end of my driveshaft or can i just have it extended and out a u joint in that will fit my ds and the ford pinion yoke?

I wouldn't waste anytime on your driveshaft, just get a Napa 447 conversion u joint for it. Yes, it will be one inch too short, but most people don't have a problem with it. Keep in mind the stock driveshaft can't handle a lot of power, and when they break they usually turn into a pretzel and take out the exhaust system and can put nasty holes in the floor. Bob

right on thanks. im not planning on driving it too much with the stock driveshaft. this is more or less just to move it around without pushing it. i plan on buying a driveshaft just gotta get the funds together lol. 9 inch drained me

What Bob said, conversion u joint then just take it easy.

ok so i took your advise and got the 447 u joint. the caps on the diff side are too big. is there more than one option for a gm to ford conversion u joint? someone told me 9 inches has two different size pinion yokes

All the Moser rears that I sell I spec out for them to come with the 1350 yoke. It is possible that you have one with a smaller 1330 yoke. I'm not sure what conversion joint you would need, but I'm sure a Napa could look it up for you. Bob
