For people that are interested in running the MR2T tranny in their swap, you may have noticed many people claiming that their axel pops out because it is too short. Different combinations of inners and outters have been tried with sporatic results. So, for kicks, I took a look at mine to see what was done on the passenger side. Guess, what? When Jamasco did mine, they added a second "thicker section" (sorry I don't know the name of this piece). And then used longer studs to connect the two sections together. Looks OEM and I have had no problems. I will take some pics if anyone is interested.

So basically what your saying is that between the inner and outter 1/2 shafts Jamasco placed a sort of "spacer" or "gasket" w/extended bolts.
Would you be able to inquire about this to them? See if they could either reproduce it for sale, give out a part # or maybe even do the work if an axle was sent to them? I have passenger side axle problems as we speak (ST185/MR2T combo). I have an OEM LSD inner with a TRD LSD so I think thats the problem but it could only be part. Thanks Jay. -------------------- |
