    Default Help me identify these tail shafts please

    I'm hella confused, apparently 86 are 22 spline, doesn't matter how many times I count these they are both 20 spline but I'm positive one of them was used in my jap t50, also obviously one has 2 bigger splines.
    I'm pretty sure that one of them is also a t18 shaft



    Cheers

    The bottom one has 22 splines. just because two are missing doesn't mean they are not there. Normally called a "master" spline. but in this case it doesn't matter.

    Early T18 (and older Celicas) uses 20 spline, just like the top shaft.

    Late T18 and AE86 use 22 spline, like the lower shaft. The 2 "bigger" splines simply fit over 2 splines on the output shaft, rather than matching "big" splines. So if you count them as 2 each then you get your 22.

    Thank you thought I was going crazy as I knew I'd had both my "22" spline ones in 86 boxes loo
