GTO driveshaft

Does anyone know if there is any difference in the new GTO's drivetrain vs an 02 Z28?
Im looking for a new driveshaft and just pondered what differences their would be in the GTO and 4th gen.

Slip yoke will be the same spline count. The length will assuredly be different. The u-joints, who knows. It's still using a 4L60-E (might be 4L65-E now) and T56 as the options.

Do a little searching on the Holden Monaro. I think thats the car the new GTO is based on. I think its got a 9 bolt independant suspension rear end too. I would think the driveshaft might work but try checking out some holden websites.

I can't imagine finding a GTO driveshaft would be easier then a 4th gen drive shaft. Less then 18,000 are coming over here a year. They made atleast 40,000 4th gens a year for 10 years.

Not too mention I highly doubt it's even close to the same length.
