Drive shaft question

My '92 had a 96 legacy trans/4.44 swap out...does this mean I have a rear driveshaft setup still from my SVX or was a Legacy shaft used ? Will either fit my car now?

Thanks,

Re: Drive shaft question

The 4.44 1997 Legacy Outback swap on my Claret used the SVX driveshaft. I think it's the only one that will work unless you did a manual swap. I'm not 100% sure though.

Correct. You're not swapping to a different sized transmission so the driveshaft remains the same.

You need an SVX driveshaft....
