Default new to the game. driveshaft help please

alright this is my issue well i guess its not a issuse since every 2jz swap has to do this.
anyways a buddy of mine is doing my 2jzgte swap in my 97sc300 before i leave to basic training. im trying to save him the time of figuring out what to do with the driveshaft. the pic below is what i have



is this all i need to have the driveshaft bolt up to the TT trans? i have read alot of people doing cutom DS or sc400 DS. can i just us the 3 bolt end and take put it on my sc300 DS?

No it will not work you need an SC4 DS or a custom one GL.

Not without mad fabbing/bearing skills. Even then I don't know if the lengths match.

All comments are correct about SC400 DS. You will also need the SC400 transmission output shaft + big honking 30mm socket (for auto if you're using an Aristo Trans).

Good luck in basic. What service you headed into?
