Re: [AMC-list] Matador / Ambassador drive shaft length + options

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx>]

Same shaft. The Ambassador had a longer wheelbase, but all between firewall and front wheel centerline. The engine still sits in the same place as it does in the Matador. You'll have to get a shaft made. Won't cost much more than getting different ends put on one. The Cherokee shaft is probably too short also.

I am swapping a AW4 transmission into my Matador and it's shorter than 
the 904 so I am considering options on the drive shaft.

Is a 4-door Ambassador's drive shaft longer than a 4-door Matador's?
