Driveshaft for this Application:

After the Transmission install is complete, take the driveshaft to a reputable driveshaft builder. The front trunnion type U-joint will need to be replaced with a slip yoke that matches the Transmission that is being used.

NOTE: If the application is on a 1956 Packard with the electric shift column, there is a solution for using the original, stock push button shift assembly.

*Matching our adapter kits with your engine can be tricky. If you are unsure of which kit to purchase for your engine, please call customer service at (763) 767-4480. Speed Gems is not responsible for return shipping costs of mismatched kits.
