  1. You Undo the nuts on the inside. I think about 8mm from the top of my head. There usually rusted and easily broken. so spray lots of WD40, so good luck.
  2. Yeah diff & axles where shortened. No one made me, I wanted it the same width as Ke25 spec's.
  3. Thanks KE1069, yeah I agree trying to keep the same maker. Not much of a fan with putting Datsun shit in Toyota's, if I can avoid it. The main issue with this diff conversion was the Axles. that's why they said it couldn't be done. I'd be appreciative if you can find out for me, what axles you used. Cheers.
  4. And they said it couldn't be Done. T series Kouki LSD, disc brakes diff in my Ke25. After very deep pockets & 4 months of F'n around all nearly done, just need to mount pan-arm bar and tail shaft.
  5. I'd check the oil pickup is no hitting the crank. Pickup could be bent. Its a crank speed noise not a cam speed noise, meaning bottom end.
  6. Thanks Styler, yeah I'll get Geoff to check out my TA22 diff and see if that's easier, just need to source a LSD centre and try to convert it to disc brake. But think I might have the same problem with the axles.
  7. Yeah that's the look I'm after. Already running 13x8 -15 deep dish wheels with Trueno metal flares, which I'm trying to keep both. Better to run negative offset than positive in my books. But need to be careful not to hit leaf spring and inner hub.
  8. Thanks guys for your input. There's no long or short side, both axles are the same length and I don't want to shorten one side as I can see more problems arising. Yes you are both right with shortening axles as they need to be cut before the step down to the spline. And yes styler you maybe right looking for longer axles. but the problem with that is late model Kouki T series diff wheel bearings are huge and the axle hub flange width. I'm currently thinking of shortening the diff and axles to the minimum required and then spacing between the brake disc and axle hub. To hide the spacer as I know there illegal for road cars.
  9. Thanks Pete, yes that was my understanding too, a bit off each side. The diff housing isn't the problem, its the axles as they fall into the category of not been long enough to shorten and to long to use. Apparently you/they can't just cut the axels and re-spline them. But I thought this is what they did to shorten diff's. The guy I got to do the diff is a diff engineer specialist, Geoff England. so I think he knows what his talking about. Admittedly he manly does ford stuff, not much Toyota's. My new way of thinking is maybe getting custom axles made up?
  10. Hi all, I've got a late model AE86 T series Kouki, disc brake rear end that I'm trying to fit into my Ke25, and my engineer is tell me that it can't be done. He said the only way to bring it back to ke20 1320mm width would be shorten one side about 60mm (i.e. left side as diff centre is already 20mm off centre to the right.) which will bring diff centre 40mm to left. My issue with this is that I think I'll have drive shaft clearance issues? What are my best options using this diff. I know I can use other diff combinations, but want to stick with what I've got. I've Googled the heck out of my computer for days trying to find a solution. Cheers.
