    Default VN/VP Manual and auto tail shaft

    Hi guys,
    Just wondering what are the differences between a manual and auto sedan tailshaft?
    Can I use the auto tailshaft with a manual gearbox?
    Thanks in advance.

    No you cant use an auto tailshaft with a manual. Tailshafts are different length and have different slip yolks (part that goes in the back of the gearbox).
