So, I've just finished installing the ST205 superstruts / hubs/ breaks, only to find out the the hybrdi MR2 & All-Trac axles are too short and just barely reach the the hub splines.

Does anyone know if the Camry V6 axles are the same as the All-Trac's, or if there are other outer axles that might reach? I cant be the first to try this swap, am I?

Camry outers won't work I tried to using them when looking for a longer shaft on my e153 converted st204. They have a thicker spline than the hub of the 204 with macpherson struts, superstruts must be the same. The camry sv20 shafts i tried were way too long anyway.

You might have to try using 205 outers, which from memory have different inner cv joints (they aren't a simple bolt together job like 185's or camry's) but if you split them they may mix'n'match together.

Another idea would be to use an early model camry shaft with both celica ends.

Sorry, probably should have mentioned that I've done the E153 conversion too.

The MR2 inners / ST185 outters would work for the standard ST204 hubs, but the superstruts push the hub out about an inch (21.8 mm to be exact) further then the macpherson struts. The 205's may work, but they are currently in use on my ST185.

I'll check into the camry inners, thnaks!
