The MR2T tranny "short axel" solution, For those that want to know... Options

[jgreening]

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 what your telling me is that a st185 tranny will not bolt on................it is a direct fit nothing needed to do to "make"it fit, its a direct bolt on and i forgot to mention that the ratios are different and longer than the mr2 tranny making it a better option, it has alrerady been tried out on my car and fits like it was meant to go i dont know what it is for the difference between the two whether one is a little bit longer or what it is but i know it is a direct fit and if yall want ill take pics today if i can find the transfer cable to the computer

Please learn how to type and write. It will make lots of us much happier...

If you put an MR2 diff and cover plate on an all-trac/GT4 tranny, you will have to add an intermediate shaft in place of the transfer case that was removed from tranny. The ST185 outers are a good choice (the pop into your hubs no problem...) but they may be the wrong length based on the intermediate shaft and other factors (this is where the 6gc'ers will need to chime in). But yes, you can convert your ST185 tranny (E150) to an E153 by swapping the diff.

PS. I'm using all '90 V6 Camry stuff (with MR2 axle carrier) on my ST205 motor / E153 tranny combo - but its going into my '90 Camry...
