I have just bought a 80 cj7 with a chev 350 stock 4sp manual (haven't had time to see which one yet) and a dana 300.  I want to use this drivetrain to fix my 76 cj5 that has a destroyed 258 t150 and dana 20.  I was going to use the entire drivetrain from the cj7, but was wondering if my driveshafts would work? I have a dana 30 and amc 20 axles, which i don't want to change cause I have already rebuilt them with gears and lockers.  Thanks

the 80 does have an amc 20.  where is the extra 10" of the cj7 then?  Also which transmission mount/skid plate will i need or are they the same?

I think I'd stick to the parts that are already together, probably just have to drill some holes.
