I do have another Montero to drive. I will let you know how it goes. I think Monty90 said he just swaped the flange onto his gen1 drive shaft. If not, I am just going to redrill the pinion flange to match the gen1 shaft.

Are you saying 100% that the 95sr drive shaft flange wont fit on the gen1 shaft U joint?

I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.
