what is the short drive shaft?

[AEW]

Mixed in my TR3 parts I found this short drive shaft. Don't remember where I got it. On the left is a normal TR3 shaft for comparison. Any opinions on what Triumph it belongs to?

I'm not an expert, but I'm guessing maybe one is for non-overdrive transmission, and the other (short) is for overdrive. The definitive answer will arrive shortly...

TR's use the same driveshafts for overdrive as non-overdrive. Spitfire's (or at least the Mk3's) have different length driveshafts for overdrive versus non-overdrive.

For this, perhaps?

Looks like an A/H 3000 DS got mixed in with your TR3 Stuff. The O/D DS are the same as Std
