How much duct tape do you have?
jk, no, there's no way to connect those. Unless you make an intermediate shaft or can machine an adapter plate...
"Does this part need to be in there?"

Can any one tell me if there Is a way of connecting the sportage gear box to the vr6 casing?? Well, 1 guy cut the mounting piece of the transmission off the sportage and cut and welded a piece off the mating part of a transmission that mated to the "new" motor on to the trans. This worked because he measured and did it correctly. Think it was a diesel Sportage to 2.8 GM 6 cyl. Or, some type of CUSTOM, 1 off adapter plate should work. ON ANOTHER NOTE... PLEASE SEND PICS OF YOUR DROPPED FRONT AXLE. I AM LOOKING AT DOING THIS AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOW YOURS LOOKS. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
