Is there a front drive shaft from another vehicle that will interchange with a 85Eagle.

hi, cadillac seville, the 80s models, but, Eagle drive shafts are still available at all local auto parts places, and reasonably priced, keep life simple, just get the correct Eagle axle. good luck, gz

sorry, are you asking about the drive axles, the CV ones, or the actual drive shaft  from the transfer case to the front diff . If that's the case, I don't think there is an exchange available. gz

Front driveshaft is the same for SX4 and wagon with the same motor/trans combo. IE: 6 cyl with auto. Standard may be the same, but I think the 4 cyl is a lot different.
AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!
