I'm putting an aod out of a foxbody in my 94gt. Now I have the problem of the driveshaft being to short. When I put the driveshaft in the tailshaft so that it bottoms out I then pulled it back out about and inch and a half for the suggested clearance I am still about an inch and a half to short to reach the rear. I have a 45.5 in driveshaft in it now. The biggest spacer I can find is an 11/16 wich still leaves me about 3/4in to short. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions? Thanks.
I also am trying to figure out what the four wires on the aod are for. I know they are for the neutral safety and reverse lights but I don't know wich ones are wich. I then need to figure out what are the neutral safety and reverse light wires on my trans harness. It has been a mess the past two days working on it.

I'll let Bob(rel3rd) handle the driveshaft question, but the 4 wires should be for the OD delete and the tranbrake, which is which i am unsure but I am sure Adam will chime in and let you know...the AOD should have a pigtail harness that plugged in to it for the nss and reverse lights, if you have that harness you can check a wiring diagram for each and just match them up. Should be able to find the diagrams online somewhere
Good luck, it has been done before so the info is out there :)

I have the transbrake and o/d wires figured out. The pigtail with four wires on it I'm sure are for the reverse lights and nss but I'm not sure what color wires are for what. I haven't been able to find a wire diagram yet.

BK/W would be black with white strip.

The 4 wires are for the neutral safety and your backup lights. A wire diagram is in the link below. Go to post #4 and #8.
Good luck.
