LS1 driveshaft install tips

Hey folks,

Tuesday im going to try and get this LS1 drive shaft installed. Is there any tips on how to do it? The car is a 97 Z28 M6 car. The driveshaft that i have is used, i bought it from somebody on the forumz. Is there any seals or anything i will need to change or should change while im doing this? Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks
Steve

install is easy... Jack up the rear by the pumkin and support the car with the suspension unloaded... Put the car in neutral and get under the car, turn the driveshaft untill you can get to the bolts easier. Put the car in Park and take out the 1st 2 bolts (repeat till done) slide the old driveshaft out from the tranny and slide the new one in. Tightin all the bolts evenly... shouldnt take any more than 30mins, having some1 to put the car from neutral to park for you makes it easier on you.
