Ke 70 4agte Conversion Tailshaft Question

[kra55]

Hey all I was reading a post called one piece tailshaft which has prompted me to ask a couple of questions - I did ask them in that post but am a bit worried about hijacking it lol so ive basically copied and pasted my post from there :y:

 

 

so as far as the actual tailshaft if I can get a non modded 1 piece out of a KE70 and change the yoke it will all line up and bolt in with no mods(other then the t50 yoke obviously) ?

 

 

Oh and with this question I guess the same thing goes for the 2 piece tailshaft - if I change the yoke on that will it work fine with the t50 gearbox with no other mods .......

 

Had to edit for another stupid question the uni joint = the diff connector bit ?

 

Sorry for the stupid questions but they have helped alot - i don't know anything about cars but have stripped the tailshaft gearbox and engine out of my car and changed it to a 4a crossmember going to dump the 4agte in this weekend and need to sus out the tailshaft - Thanks to rollaclub.com for me being able to do all of this

 

i have tried to search for an answer to this but i seem to suck at using the search......

 

EDIT: heh just to confirm the reason I'm posting this is is as far as I'm aware i couldnt use the existing tailshaft till i read another post and am now a little confused

I have an answer to my question - just wanted to post below incase it is handy for anyone else - I am unable to thank the author of this information as a friend had emailed it to me :dance:

 

use the ae71 tailshaft when mating a ADM or JDM T50 to a KE70/AE71 borg diff.

Ae86 tailshaft will only work on the s and t series diffs which from memory have a different bolt pattern, i think 2 bolts fit, but thats not overly advisable.

 

diff combinations found the link above, as written by some awesome dude.

 

 

So yes i can use my existing tailshaft if i change the yoke and everything should line up fine - So i am unsure where i read it couldnt be done or maybe i just confused myself cause i am definitely aware using the existing tailshaft and diff are not the best of ideas :yes:
