Looks like they removed the CV housing from another axle and bolted it in.

I was wondering what that was called. I am surprised that putting those two pieces together fit so snuggly - it almost looks like one piece. Anyone else have any comments on this? -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

However, anyone that is interested in the info has my permission to post the pictures on whatever forums they want. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

I have a spare set I can take some pics of.
There is one thing that troubles me about the picture. If they did indeed bolt a second CV housing between the inner shaft and outer axle, how would this effect the compressed axle length? The inner shaft has a domed surface where the outer bolts up, which could act as a stop to keep the axle from over compressing. If the middle housing is hollow, then the axle could compress an extra an or so. I think pics would help describe what I'm trying to say! -------------------- Scott

Yea, i would like to know this also, because im plannin on using a s54 tranny. And its said that i need the st185 inners and combine it with the GT outers. If i need to do this, i might need this solution also. Im wondering if i could just use the GT axels on that tranny instead of custom.

NO the S54 transmission is the GT tranny and all you need is GT axles, complete ones.

My Mr2 inners look indentical to supersprynts first picture.
Why not just go with the a definitive answer, and call this jasmico company and ask them their logic if any was used? |
