does it have a t50 in it? can remember about ke70 but in ae86 u use front half and then the rear needs to be a jdm one or t18 because its slightly short allowing it to fit

[ke70dave]

if its stocko ke70, it will have a 4K motor, with either a K40 or a K50 gearbox. to put a T series diff in, you need to leave the front half of the trail shaft, and just replace the rear half with one from a T18.

the tailshaft is a single piece...i mean it bends in the middle but cant be seperated

its got a 4k in it

[driftism]

if it's a stock ke70 with a 4k you need a custom tailshaft for it.

I ran into this problem when i fitted my lsd diff to my ke so i could have some fun while the sprinter was being built. pity i forgot about the tailshaft not fitting until i had fitted everything else.

bugger that sux...yeah thats when we figured it out....after everything else was done..might just have to redrill the tailshaft

[biggo]

you need to shoten it. redrilling will cause the input to smash the gearbox bearing/seal
