hey guys just a question,

a friend of mine gave me a tailshaft to fit to my t50, and counted my output spline teeth on the t50 and of course there was 22, the tailshaft has only 20. no news there.

 

so i rang my mate and told him and he was like wtf?, it fits my t50 and sent me a pic of the same shaft in his t50, and he said it also fits my k50 and my k40 box...............?

my question is, is it possible to make a hybrid box with a 20 tooth output out of the k series to the t series, to fit the 20 tooth input? if you know what i mean

 

i don't understand how his tailshaft fits his t50 AND k50/40 aswell its a sigle piece shaft if that helps

might be food for thought if anyone can help that would be great because there is certainly more 20 tooth inputs than there is 22 tooth getting around

 

cheers

Could be a T50 from a celica or T18 I know they had different spines from 86 and ae71 but can't remember which one had what number of spines.

I assume you just swap the nose of the driveshaft over. Fit a new UJ while you're there.

 

I had to do that to turn my auto driveshaft into a manual one.

cheers lads, both of his shafts, one of which i have, fit into both his t50 and his k40 and k50?

does anyone know how many teeth the t50 out of the t18 is? i can work out how all of his boxes have a 20 tooth output?

Your T50 is newer than his. Before 82/83 was 20 spline and later was 22 spline. don't know date. There`s internal

differences as well. Easiest to sell or trade yours for a 20 spline. Yours should be worth most

 

The 22 spline yokes Ive seen don't fit 20 spine axels UJ joint got different width

 

On many 22 spline yokes UJ joints are staked in place rather than circlipped as well..

You could get lucky tho , Ive far from seen it all

thanks man, that helped alot, ill look into finding an older 20 slpine box maybe? and keep hunting for both the box and 22 spline tailshaft
