Trolleybus Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I am changing from a BW65 to a manual O/D on my 1977 2500TC.It would appear that the propeller shaft will be too long.My books say there is about an 8.5mm difference between the auto and the manual but this is for the BW35.I have it set up on a trolley with the front and rear sub frames attached and it looks like the extension on the O/D box is about 2.5" 60mm longer than the auto.Anybody know what length I need I'd appreciate it.

iggy Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 The prop shaft on my 1972 mk2 measures exactly 48" face to face of the flanges but this measurement is with the front end of the car jacked up about 2 foot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trolleybus Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 Thanks Gavin, Since found the info on Chris Witor's web site. Its 51 1/4" for the BW65 and 47 1/2" for the manual o/d. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
