    you have to split the tailshaft at the centre bearing and use the manual front half and the sedan rear half. the wagon rear rear half is slightly longer than the sedan one. This is exactly what i did when i did my manual conversion.

    If you lived here in Melbourne, I could do you a straight swap. I need a manual wagon tailshaft for my Statesman

    If it vibrates, you will need to get it balanced.

    I can think of something else you can do with it.

    Around $150 assuming you'll need a new centre bearing. Also depends if you can remove the tailshaft and take it down to them yourself

    if you pull it out of the wagon you will see that there is two spacers under the center bearing you do not need to use it in a sedan thay are there to get the angle of the tail shaft right i think has something to do with the pinion angal in the wagon/ute
