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.

Just for reference, the difference between the camry and st185 axle is the outer end with the spline. The splines are different. It won't fit into the celica hub.

Second entry in completed engine swaps Early model camry v6's ~'90 have the same outer spline as st204 but later model camry ~'95(more common now) have larger splines. sorry had to clear that up. Having done the conversion twice now, I've learnt that people should be more specific with quotes and advice, cos it gets costly when you order wrong parts. On a separate matter I think that people are using two left st185 shafts in their 204's cos I havent had any problems with my shafts popping out. I have spoken to several wreckers in my area who swear that both shafts are same but they're clearly not. There is about an inch difference between the two. Anyway not trying to sidetrack this thread but thought it may explain the problem. |
