NV 4500 Drive shaft question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

carwasher · 02-12-2019, 09:48 PM

I found a 1998 NV4500 with bellhousing, but has a fixed yoke for driveshift, is there a fix to put a standard driveshaft that slips in. (standard 2wd driveshaft)

Thanks for any help

Why would you want to? If your not replacing a similar 4500 you're going to have to have a new shaft anyway. The fixed yoke is a better setup. Just get a new shaft with a slip joint and forget it.
