I'm trying to install a 2014 T6060 into my 2011 GT500 and when I looked, the flange at the rear of the 2014 is different than mine. I was planning on just swapping them out, but the diameter is different. I currently have a DynaTech one piece aluminum Driveshaft. Any idea where I can buy a flange that will work?
I included pictures, first two are 2014. Last two are 2011.
Thanks.

Time to get the 13-14 driveshaft?

That is what I was thinking. Tob did an excellent job showing how to fit the OEM CF driveshaft on an older car.

I went back to that thread for reference on specifics of the 13 trans and on the first page there are a couple companies mentioned that do custom work. Might want to see if you can call one and see what they have to offer.

You need TOB. Try to PM him. He is the master of retrofitting parts. Like mentioned above, it might be easier to get the '13 DS and buy the rear adapter for your car.

That was the suggestion I made to Sal. Otherwise he's going backwards and would need a real one off flange that uses 40 splines and has a flat face (the 2011 flange in the above photos only has 28 splines). There is definitely a strength benefit to a flange with a higher spline count.

I'd dump the aluminum shaft in the market and buy a factory CF shaft. A much better upgrade that is commensurate with the upgraded transmission.

ON EDIT: Interesting yellow O-ring I see inside the '14 flange. I've not seen that before...
