AT to MT w/H5D tranny driveshaft question

[pandorasbox]

Alright so i did an auto to manual and in the process swapped in a B000 H5D (told its the SI from '97) and the drive shafts dont seem to fit right (assumed this might be an issue). They are the AT shafts but i was told that you can use the AT shafts with the S20. So which shafts will i need for the H5D (97 SI) tranny?

I really appreciate any help with this matter. Once this is totally done im gonna do a BIG AT to MT how to thread.

OK, well, you actually have an S40 transmission if its out of a '97 Si since that transmission was off of the D16Y8. I would sugeest getting the driveshafts off of the '97 del Sol Si M/T.

thanks guys. yeah the code on the trans says S8G and has a big H5D stamp on the top. Its from a 97. The axles didnt look like they fit tho when i tried em so i thought id get some suggestions.

yes, it is a fact, auto and 5-speed axel's are the same on d's...

why do you think theres a problem... length, fit???

my 5g 4dr slushbox gonna get new AZ axles........just because I have a warranty on the HB axles :)

yeah it just looked like there were some length issues and i wanted to double check what you guys recommend.
lol, well it sounds like these things are pretty interchangable. So they are all the same irregardless of 1.5 or 1.6 auto or manual? And years?
