are all T series centres the same?

[slide86]

just wanting to know if all T series centres are the same?

Im not concerned with axle sizes ATM. just if i get a centre from a TA22 diff, will it fit into a T-18 housing?

i think that it would be the same. confermation required.

cheers

ta22 t series centre will fit a t18 housing

[Gilly]

as will RA40

[Patric]

all australian T series ae the same.
There were some later model T series that used bigger axles but you are generally safe if you are pulling the centre from a car that is older than 1984 and early 1985. All Zenki.. not Kouki.

have interchanged ra40/60 and t 18 axels, centres and front housings, not sure bout ta22 but if its t........

TA22 are winners.

Manual TA22's have a 4.1:1 centre...which is alot better than a 3.7 or a 3.9.

I heard the front diff out of a 4x4 hylux is a 4.3 T series...

sweet. i am building two LSD centres for T series diffs.

one has cusco centre and one has standard JDM lsd. just wanting to confirm i can fit into T-18 housings for ease of fitting!

good work peoples!

[rthy]

I have had this confirmed by a reliable source

oh and heres another one for you, I know of a rare S series diff center, but its unconfirmed

[RobertoX]

thats nice... I know of a really rare s series diff centre, it was the only one released that was installed to a sprinter with the chassis number ae860003245... lol

http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif what is so rare about it?

[Jonny Rochester]

Yes most T series centers are the same, or close enough to fit.

I looked up the part numbers for AE86 diffs and can confirm this:
Early diff center and carrier is the same part as Celica, Corona, Carina, Corolla of that era. (with T series)
Late open diff center is the exact same part as AE95.
The 4.3:1 final drive for AE86 is also used in some YR31 van, and various Corona/Celica/Carina things some of which we didn't get.

The part numbers for AE86 diffs do not match any HiLux front diff. If the HiLux does have a T series front, they are slightly different parts with different numbers. I will have to look into this.

[Javal]

3.9 or 4.1 are definatley good ratios.

Ooooh, edited, and with good reason.

I got a bit drunk last night...

[slide86]

one last question. the rear half of the T-18 tailshaft will bolt up to the flange on any of the above mentioned centres?

i hope so....

[RobertoX]

Yeah from what I have found the flanges are the same

[Javal]

Yes they are all the same.

Go now! Install it already.
