I have a 97 Protégé LX 1.5L 5spd. I would like to know if I can eliminate the joint or intermediate shaft by installing the longer right axle that is available? I have been able to find the joint shaft only at dealers for around $200 and could save that with the longer shaft. Anyone out there tried this? Thanks

Can you eliminate the joint shaft with the longer cv axle on a 97 Protege?

The intermediate shaft is there to reduce torquesteer. It's a nice thing to have. I've never tried bypassing it though, so I can't answer your question.1990 Protege 4WD

I totally get that. Unfortunately I can't tell you what you need to know. Try searching/posting in the BHA drivetrain section.1990 Protege 4WD
