ok i have a 96 camaro with the 3.8, and i have to replace the rear main seal on the motor so i have to drop the shaft and tranny out. i was thinking of replacing the stock steel two piece to an aluminum ds. first question is, the length of the shaft a problem for the v6 models, is it too long or too short? Second is if the length is fine, do i have to change out the joints? and third i found one locally for 130 bucks, is that too much?
