axle for AE86 diff???

[alimonos]

I need some help here guys...
A friend of mine put a 4AGE in a KE30 he has the rear diff of the AE86 but he doesn't have the complete axle (only has the front part). Is there any rear end of other models axles that can be used?

I think that even the KE30 Axle might work with some adjustments. Basically throw in the AE86 Diff+Bell (make the holes in the diff to suit. And then use the std AE86 axles, but shorten them enough so they fit.

Other options are the TE20 etc model celica axles. Same method should be used.

Thanks Nohachi!

Just to return to this, because I had a hunch that things would work out, but wasn't 100% sure.

I just went into the cellar to try and fit the AE86 belhousing onto the TA22GT rear axle housing. They go together like they were made for each other. All the holes line up and also the axles line up perfectly. Would have made some pictures, but the camera is back at home...

All I have to do now is shorten the AE86 axles on a lathe, figure out a way to make new spring brackets and align them and finally adopt a rear disc brake system from some car on another....
